Mt. Elbrus: Tucker & Team Train on the Mountain
Posted by: Mark Tucker, JM Gorum
Categories: Expedition Dispatches Elbrus Southside
Elevation: 12,000'
Today was our first rest day up on Mt. Elbrus. We managed to sleep in a little bit, usually a rarity in the mountains. After a substantial breakfast, we got a little training in reviewing some essential skills and introducing some techniques specific to the route. In addition to training, a few members of the team got some gambling in during our down time. Playing poker for toothpicks is serious business up here. We just finished dinner, everyone's gear is organized, and we are ready for an early morning tomorrow!
