Dear Friends!

From all the team of “Asia Mountains” I would like to thank you for being with us at peak Lenin in the season of 2011. The season has finished, so we can resume. In spite of the common opinion that peak Lenin is simple and easy seventhousender in practice it turns opposite. At the end of one more alpine season we can see how difficult is peak Lenin in reality. First of all I would like to congratulate everyone who realized his dream and climbed peak Lenin. Those who rejected ascents for any reason are also worthy of respect. They had enough courage to realize their strength and skills or not to argue with bad weather conditions and leave a dream of climbing peak Lenin for next times.

Here are the names of climbers who were standing on the top of peak Lenin in the season 2011:
