Woman from Kazakhstan conquers Mount Elbrus and Damavand

A mountaineer from Kazakhstan has successfully climbed two iconic peaks in 20 days as part of the international 7 Volcanoes project. First, Marina Malysheva reached the 5,600-meter East Summit of Mount Elbrus in Russia, and then Damavand in Iran – Asia’s highest volcano, which also rises above 5,600 meters. Although Malysheva is not a professional climber, she has been training specifically for these ascents for the past two years. Her next goal is the Himalayas and the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest.
