The team is excited for tonight! Summit time. We had an early morning training session to prep us for tomorrow by reviewing a few climbing techniques with our crampons and ice axe. Dasha has done a great job of keep us healthy and satisfied with plenty of good old home cooked Russian food, which includes borsch and plenty of soups and salads. This afternoon the team had a through discussion about tonight's upcoming climb and everyone is packed up and ready. The game plan is to be up at 1am and after a quick breakfast hop on the snowcat to give us a bump a little further up the mountain. This will shorten our climb a little and increase our chance of reaching the highest point in Europe. The weather continues to be erratic, the forecast looks good for tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed for us! RMI Guide Casey Grom and team
