Game Day on Elbrus

August 6, 2018

Final acclimatization hike today.  Weather was good so the team’s thinking tonight for a summit attempt.  Forecast is a little ‘iffy’ in the days ahead so a shot tonight seems like the right decision.  Acclimatization has gone well and members have been handling the altitude well.  Let’s keep fingers crossed, hoping the weather holds and that every is able to perform well tomorrow.  It’s game day.
