"First Congress of climbers on Everest was held in May 2003 in the capital of Nepal, Kathmandu. Then at the personal invitation of King of Nepal met the Everest climbers from all over the world. It is about climbers of former Soviet Union, but it is the second mass meeting after the meeting in Nepal. The event is taking place in Jubilee years, not only for the Soviet and Russian mountaineering. This year marks five years to the day when the Azerbaijani flag was raised over the highest point of the planet. I still can not believe that I was given the honor to do it. I am sure that we in Azerbaijan will also be given due consideration to future anniversaries in the history of Russian mountaineering "- said Ashurly.
"I am confident that in the very near future, our young climbers will join the list of conquerors of Everest. Federation of recent years, is successfully implementing a project to train young altitude national team. For the past two seasons, the young climbers twice on different routes conquered Ibn Sina Peak (formerly Lenin Peak 7134m), climbed the peaks Korjenevskaya (7105 m) and Ismail Somoni (formerly Communism, 7495m). We are talking only about sports and expeditions and do not consider part of our climbers in commercial expeditions and did not provide the services of hired tour guides. We are growing a strong generation of climbers able to solve interesting problems in the high mountains, " said Ashurly.-02D-
