Elbrus, West Summit is on the left
100% on the summit of Elbrus is the report today from Charlotte and Igor. Conditions were pretty much perfect. What else can you say. Team is back to the hut and will be in the valley tomorrow. Sweet way to start the Elbrus season.
Mike Hamill leads Trip 2 and he just flew off Denali 4 days ago. A shower, do a load of laundry, a steak or two and he’ll be ready to go.
Charlotte and team now have our two planned weather contingency days to play in the valley before heading to Moscow to experience another piece of Russia.
