Hello everyone,
I recently had planned to climb Elbrus using a tour guide (which I wont name) the trip has been cancelled due to safety concerns with political unrest in the area. The Australian, U.S and English travel advisories state that citizens should not travel to this area due to a high risk to your safety.
I am just letting everyone know so they can make an informed decision and/or research the matter a little more before they fork out their hard earned cash only for the trip to be cancelled!!!! or more importantly...something were to happen to you whilst over there.
I am seriously pissed about it all, but safety first I say!!!!!!!
Cheers everyone,
Andrew
