First Don Cho Oyu Expedition has successfully been held!


On October 10 at 4.00 am the team set off the camp 2 set at 7100m heading to the summit. Since the morning weather was excellent but then sharply started to spoil - snowfall and a strong wind began. Therefore, when at 12-00 Dmitry Podlesny reached the top a decision to descend of all the team was adopted. At 14.00 the guys were at C2 and right then started to descend to ABC where they came approximately at 21.00. They feel like champions! Everything turned out well, without freezing injury, only high-altitude cough.
On October 20 the caravan of yaks was loaded and started to descend.
