President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Alaska:
We slept well at Camp 3 at 11,000 feet. A little tired, because we have been walking at night for three days already. We get up at one or two in the morning. A hamburger for breakfast and harness ourselves to the sleds. And we drag, drag, drag our luggage up the mountain. Food and fuel for 20 days. And all the things, and snacks. A load of 60 kg for each.
Today we held classes on the technique of walking on crampons. And also on self-arrest with an ice ax. Tomorrow there will be dangerous traverses on steep slopes.
