Second day of acclimatization and training on the lower slopes of Elbrus. A little bit of everything, weather-wise, today. Rain, fog, hail and sun.
Back at the hotel in the valley for tonight. Tomorrow’s the move up to the hut. At least two nights there prior to taking a shot at the top. A little nice weather soon would be nice.
