Hi, friends! Don't know, did my calls by a satellite phone reach you, so I duplicated the information. Yesterday we, all together, all members and guides, climbed to the summit of Island peak!

Artem Rostovtsev, guide of 7 summits Club: Hello Everyone!

This is Laos. Today we continued local walks in the jungle. Unfortunately, the observation platforms was delayed by morning fog, but it was enough another things to look. We visited a village of  local tribes, rubber plantations and even took a dip in the river.

Vladimir Kotlyar, a guide of the 7 Summits Club: Good morning! This is a message from Kotlyar and his team of “sportsmen self-racers”. At 8 am we all together climbed to the top of Kalapatar! Hurrah!!! We are already moving on...

Vladimir Kotlyar, a guide of the 7 Summits Club:

A group of "Athletes moonshiners" has reached Pheriche. Height: 4200. All participants are still good as a trained special forces soldiers. I have smoked with views of Ama Dablam, the last mountain of Valery Rozov. I know him, unfortunately, very short time, but that bright person could not leave a mark either, with whom he met.

Andrey Berezin, guide of the 7 Summits Club:

This morning the group named  "12 with no chairs"  climbed to the top of the Mount Kalapathar. Thus we have fulfilled all the planned program of trek to the Base camp of Everest. Weather, surprisingly, after a few cold days, were warm. Share Sunny greetings to all!  And we begin a descent to civilization.

We think of Valery, remember and mourn! We had the good fortune to work and be friends with this star person. Valery Rozov was a constant participant of our expeditions, he tried to be at all our meetings, often just visited our Club. And we appreciated that and believed that with him nothing will happen, believed in his prudence, his method, his star...

Alexander Abramov: Valery has done so much in your life.... a huge number of ascents and expeditions. I'm trying to remember everything. And more  and more I remember. A huge number of achievements, incredible projects. It must be that a critical mass has accumulated.

Alexander Abramov: it's a reminder: the mountain is not a game. Be careful. Take care of yourself and take care of your friands and members of expeditiions. How Valera was careful! How he all verified 10 times... Please check all 11 times!

Andrey Berezin, guide of the 7 Summits Club: We are reporting from Sunny Nepal. Group "12 with no chairs" reached the Everest base camp, explored this place, we liked it. Tomorrow we'll go see the Everest from the top of Kalapatar. To be continued....
