Acclimatization day 1
We woke up after a good night sleep at 7am, to have a breakfast. I think they read my blog last night because they gave us aaaaaa lot of food. Then took the cable car up to 2,700m and started our first day of acclimatization hike up to 3,500m. It took us about 5 hours to reach it, the team paced up really well and made it with great spirit and attitude. We were blessed with amazing weather and beautiful views of mount Elbrus. We took a lot of pictures that i will share after the climb. You can also track us on spotmoe on my website.
On the way down was very quick, it took us about an hour back to the chairlift. Back in Cheget, we had the best Shashlik ever which is basically a Russian Kabab. Bought some water, snacks, and some supplies for tomorrow and the days to come.
