We are considering climbing mount Elbrus with a group of five friends. Some already have some climbing experience (Kilimanjaro, Huayna Potosi, Pequeño Alpamayo) both others don't. So I was wondering if you guys consider the north route safe enough to do. We would like to avoid the busy South route with all these chari lifst, snow cats and so on...
We would go with an orgasation, providing guidance. If you have any tips for picking the best and safest company: always welcome!
Thanks in advance!
