Mount Elbrus Cybercasts: July 2014

Elbrus July 13 Team

Posted on by Alpine Ascents

Hey All,

The group had a great day touring St Petersburg yesterday. We saw a lot of key places in the city with the highlight being a tour of the Hermitage, which was absolutely amazing. We spent today relocating to Terskol through the Baksan valley first by air to Mineral Vody followed by a 3.5hr bus ride. The accommodations here leave nothing left to be desired and will make a great base for the upcoming acclimation hikes. The whole team is ready to go!

I just want to say hi to everyone back home, I’ll be coming back with some awesome pics and stories.
