mountaineers who are going to climb up the Elbrus. Wishing them success
Vardan Oskanyan gave them the Flag of the Republic of Armenia to put
on top of the mountain.
Head of the expedition group Hayk Tonoyan represented the program,
the state of the mountain climbing sport in Armenia and told about
the previous expeditions. The other members of the group are Tigran
Nersisyants and Lev Sarkisov.
They are part of the international expedition group of 500 people
representing about 20 countries which is going to climb Elbrus on
May 9. Let us remind you that Elbrus stands 5621 meters high. The
expedition is devoted to the victory in the second World War and the
60th anniversary of the formation of UN.
The Armenian mountaineers have already climbed the tops of the
mountain-chains Pamir, Tyan-Shan and Alaska twice. Tonoyan himself
has climbed up Ararat twice - in 1991 and in 2001.
