And, more importantly, our incredible staff of climbing Sherpas and guides have been hard at work high on the mountain. They recently completed our teams final carry of tents and oxygen to the high camp at the South Col, that’s at 8,000 meters elevation and the final carry involved some serio

Our Second trip to Elbrus in the summer of 2026 is starting off with a great hike in the surrounding hills of Terskol for acclimatization. One of the team members is Lonnie Bedwell, who has climbed with us on Everest, Vinson, Denali, and now Elbrus is a blind adventurer who looks to finish the seven summits in October.

This is such a classic expedition trek that is overlooked by its  lesser known region of the Karakoram Himalayas, compared to the much more heavily trafficked mountains of Nepal.
