Off to the Top of Europe…
First I would like to wish you all Eid Mubarak. In less than 8 hours I will be off to my next adventure this time to the 5th highest mountain of the 7 Summits
Mount Elbrus. Mount Elbrus is located in the western Caucasus mountain range in Russia, near the border of Georgia. Your support is the reason I strive to reach higher and aim further, for that I Thank You.
Elbrus at 5,642m is an extreme, high altitude climb. Climbing up to 8 hours per day. Summit day is the most demanding portion of the climb, typically involving 8 hours for the ascent and 7 hours for the descent, that is 15hr straight . The expedition requires strength & endurance. Being in sound physical condition is the single most important aspect for me to maximize my chances to summit. I have been training really hard the past few months and hope it will all pay off soon.
I will update my blog as much as possible. I also will be having audio blogs on the days I do not have internet connection. I would like to keep you all as close as I can to the real thing. You can also locate me at any time using my gps on SpotMoe it will be activated tomorrow onwards.
Wish me luck…
