The participants of "Abramov's Favorite Group" have regained their strength, trained and are ready to storm Island Peak
Namaste everyone! Today "Abramov's Favorite Group" woke up in Dingboche a little later. Because part of the group decided to finish the climb and return to Kathmandu by helicopter. The remaining participants went out and trudged to Chukung in a couple of hours. After lunch, we checked the weather and our health again and decided to stay here for a day. And go to climb Island Peak on a reserve day. After lunch, we held part of the training on the use of mountaineering equipment. At the end of the day, it started snowing and we finished the training to continue it in the morning! The goal of the day was to learn how to jumar well and, most importantly, to rest after difficult days. Everyone has fully recovered and began to feel much better. Now we are moving to the assault camp of Island Peak and at night we go to the assault. Everyone is ready, the weather promises to be good, a little luck remains and everything will be fine.
