The team on Elbrus has moved up to their high hut. A little food packing first and then it was up the condoles and get settled into the hut there.
Nice having a cook to take care of food preparation, leaving the team to concentrate on getting ready for their climb.
Another acclimatization hike and two nights at that high hut before it’ll be time to take that summit shot. Once well acclimated, it’s all about taking care of yourself on the climb, and it’s all about the weather. Fingers crossed.
