The 7 Summits Club team is at Base Camp but Alex Abramov has already made an important decision

Alexander Abramov leader of the Everest expedition reports from the slopes of Everest: Today the 7 Summits Club Everest-2026 team is staying at Base Camp. We only went for a short walk below Pumoria two-hour stroll. The views were excellent. Rustam Nabiev successfully reached Camp 1 having traversed the Khumbu Icefall on his hands in 15 hours. He is resting now. Inspired by his feat I decided to set a new challenge for myself as well: to climb Everest while fasting. Having the experience of several previous climbs undertaken while fasting I can say that ones strength actually increases during a fast. The body focuses its energy and functions more efficiently. Also today a couple with two children visited us at Base Camp. They spent 12 days trekking from Lukla to reach Base Camp. The children are 7 and 2 years old. True heroes. They hail from Belgorod.,
