Elbrus Team Descends from Mountain

August 1, 2010

Showers was the word of the day! That's all anyone could think about after such a great night of sleep, that and having not bathed in four days. After breakfast the team descended back down from Elbrus to our hotel in the Baksan valley via the 2 gondolas and single chair lift. The weather continues to be sunny and very warm here in Russia. Tonight we will have a celebratory dinner and I'm sure there will be a little sampling of the local Vodka too. Everyone is smiling.
