End of the Krubera 2007 expedition (updated after Cavex; the 21st january
2007) "Today (the 21st january 2007) a caving part of our expedition has
finished. From the bivouac in -700 m, Shuvalov, Firsov, Sklyar, Venyskiy,
Ushakevich and Mislevets being loaded with six transport bags set off
upwards. Smernikov with Provalov pulled four bags from the meander "Crimea"
out. We finished a work in the cave for the once. Majority of the
expedition equipment and material was carried forward up to the helicopter
field. Theres a totally cloudy sky below us, and above us there are stars
and a new moon. The wind is strong, but its cold. Klimchouk made a grog
and Seryoza Smernikov prepared an outstanding pilav/pilaf. We hope well
be lucky, weather will get better and well fly away tomorrov.
