Manaslu 2025 - Page 2

Yesterday the members of the Club 8000 expedition to Manaslu had a rest day. Everyone just walked around a bit, looked at the camps of other expeditions. Today our team will go out for the first acclimatization overnight. We will climb to Camp 1 at an altitude of 5700 meters.

Guides Alexander Abramov and Andrey Berezin.

Today our valiant team came to the Manaslu Base Camp. Altitude - 4750 meters. The camp is very comfortable. For the participants and guides - new tents, with beds. And our Internet is from Starlink. And the toilets are chic. Everything is great. Although everyone is a little "washed up", the altitude is taking its toll. The doctor did a "check-up". The whole team is fine. Tomorrow is a walk around the base camps and unpacking things. It started to rain lightly. And it's warm, for such an altitude.

Expedition guides Alexander Abramov and Andrey Berezin.

 Andrey Berezin:

Namaste from Nepal! The Manasl-25 group continued exploring the surroundings of Samagaon today. We visited the monastery closest to us, located at an altitude of 4000 meters. It was cloudy all day, so we did not see the surrounding Himalayan peaks. But this did not stop us from having a good, useful time. Tomorrow we will go to the Manaslu base camp.

 Alexander Abramov:

Today our team gained 500 m in altitude and went above the 4000 meter mark. We climbed to the Pungen Gumba monastery. Tomorrow we go to the Base Camp. Olga Rumyantseva came there today. She highly praised our camp. In the evening, as always, our team doctor conducted a medical examination. Everyone is doing great.

The 7 Summits Club Guide Boris Egorov reports from Nepal:

Hello to everyone from Nepal! As part of the 8000 Club's large expedition to the eight-thousander Manaslu, Alexey Sivkov and I also decided to try ourselves at altitude. And today we have already arrived at the base camp at an altitude of 4800 meters. We are accompanied by friends who will stay with us for several days at this altitude.

After three days of village life in Samagaon, the conditions here are, of course, great! We are still getting used to the tent life.

Namaste from Nepal! News from the 8000 Club expedition "Manaslu-25". Today was a busy day. In the morning, the third part of the team arrived, the participants who spent the night the day before in Namrung, 17 kilometers down the gorge. Meanwhile, the main group gathered to go to the village of Samdu, from where the trail to Tibet begins. We returned to Samagaon by lunchtime. In the afternoon, the entire expedition gathered at the lodge. Tomorrow we are going to the monastery. Guides Alexander Abramov and Andrey Berezin.

Today, in bad weather conditions, the Manaslu-25 team was able to fly to the village of Samagaon, located at an altitude of 3600 meters. The trail to the Base Camp begins from here. However, not all of them arrived. Two flights landed in Samagaon, and the third did not make it and

stayed in the village 17 km below us. Tomorrow, the guys will probably walk up. Like the entire expedition, this will be a day of acclimatization at this altitude.

The 7 Summits Club guide Andrey Berezin reports from Nepal:

Namaste from Nepal! The main group of the 8000 Club Manaslu expedition gathered in Kathmandu. We visited the city's sights, participated as spectators in the colorful Indra Jatra festivities. We packed our things, bought the necessary equipment for the expedition. Tomorrow morning we fly to the village of Samagaon at the foot of our mountain. The group's guides are Alexander Abramov and Andrey Berezin.

President of the 7 Summits Club, head of the Manaslu expedition Alexander Abramov from Nepal:

 My 30th expedition to eight-thousanders has begun. We are going to Manaslu. I have 25 expeditions to Everest, one to Manaslu and three to Cho Oyu. In them, 16 ascents to peaks above 8000 m have been made. I can't believe it myself! Today we received a permit for the mountain and the first participants have arrived. Everything is going according to plan.

According to our Nepalese team, the Manaslu Base Camp is fully prepared to receive our expedition. Comfortable personal tents, public areas, a kitchen, and a toilet. Food, gas, a generator, and oxygen cylinders for climbers and Sherpas have been delivered to the camp. Everything is going according to plan. We hope that the weather will not present any unpleasant surprises this year. A combined team of Sherpas from the Expedition Operators Association of Nepal (EOAN) is already working on the route. Seven experienced fighters promise to hang ropes along the entire route by mid-month. As usual, there will be a large number of climbers on Manaslu in the fall. Good luck to them all and to return victorious and without injuries!

 Base Camp, September 2, 2025

 On September 3, the President of the 7 Summits Club company, Alexander Abramov, flies to Nepal. Our traditional autumn expedition to the Himalayan eight-thousander Manaslu begins. This time, under the flag of the 8000 Club, we have gathered an impressive team of 12 participants and three guides. For about half of the participants, this will be the first attempt to climb the eight-thousander. The rest can already be called "collectors". We are following the information from Nepal!
