Mt. Elbrus: Grom & Team Celebrate Their Summit Success in Cheget

August 2, 2014

Posted by: Casey Grom

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Elbrus Southside

Success! We did it! We officially stood on top of the highest point in Europe. It was the nicest day I've ever had here on Elbrus- clear, calm, and great overall climbing conditions! Add on top of that our local guide Vladimir (hero) not only negotiated a snow cat ride of a life time, but he broke trail all day to help us achieve our goal. The team did a great job of climbing and taking care of themselves all day. We enjoyed the summit and amazing views for about 20 minutes before descending back to camp, where we had a quick lunch and headed all the way back to Cheget for hot showers and beer! We have just wrapped up the evening with dinner and are headed out to explore the Cheget nightlife. RMI Guide Casey Grom and a happy crew!
