Btw, you're a better ambassador for your country than any "official" ambassador I've ever heard, at least in my lifetime.
Amen ❤
Perfectly stated. I totally agree. Very well done Eli... and thank you.
People are people anywhere. Nation states are social constructs that keeps us apart, same as language and cultural differences. Once you truly understand this you will realize people don't need ambassadors, especially not from fascistoid dictatorships.
I get what you mean though. Many people have prejudices for political reasons.
So true
Hello from Redlands, California. Thank you for the amazing vlogs! My kids and I love watching one every Saturday morning at breakfast as a tradition.
This is such a premium content! All I see is hard work! Thank you for giving me reasons to stick to your channel.
Wow, amazing trip, a window on hiking and leisure activites in Russia. Fantastic window on Russian's working as a group in leisure activites. Thank you for sharing Russia beyond Red Square, Tolstoi, and the Bolshoi. Can not wait to see what is next. うわー、素晴らしい旅行、ロシアでのハイキングとレジャー活動の窓。 ロシア人がグループとしてレジャー活動を行っていることを示す素晴らしい窓。 赤の広場、トルストイ、ボリショイ以外のロシアを共有してくれてありがとう。 次に何が起こるか見るのが待ちきれません。
So interesting, I wish I could speak Russian, I live in Alaska, there is some Russia people here but they keep to themselves, I don’t know, one of the best books I ever read was about a guy named Ed Vistures. He climbed the worlds 14 tallest mountains becoming only the 6th person to do so, this was in the nineties. It’s always interesting to see another persons view of things from somewhere else in the world. I hope I get to travel in Russia someday Eli. This is a good video. I was recommended to it from another channel, I hope you get success on TH-cam. You do speak good English, I almost can’t speak myself some days and I was born in it. So. Thank you.
This is your best vlog by far a true TV documentary material. You spoke like a true mountain climber with wiseness and cautiousness. Most mountain climbers champions will tell you this never try to be reckless. Hats off also to The Climbing Brothers guides they took the right decision and I look forward using their services in a near future. Bravo and thank you.
Great choice for music. From Ireland 🇮🇪. The Crannberries were huge in the 90s. Love to the motherland Russia 🇷🇺.
Thanks Eli for renewing my love of trekking. I am stuck in Australia but I am on the first plane when they let us out.
I summited 1999 and again in 2002 was there.
Absolutely fabulous area.
Inspired me to start night school to start learning Russian, however work pressures meant only done half the lessons.
Thanks for sharing your video. Sorry you did not get all the way to the summit.
However it was still one of life's experiences to treasure.
очень хорошо Спасибо
Congrats ,🎉 I did Elbrus last year and will be in my my for ever. Many don’t even know that the highest mountain in Europe is actually based in Russia 🇷🇺
Elbrus is in Asia not in Europe
@@giuseppecento Elbrus is located in Europe
@@giuseppecento the Elbrus like the Montblanc is in Europe ... 🤗🤗🙋🏻
@@giuseppecento main ridge of the Caucasus is the border between Europe and Asia. South of the main ridge is Asia, but Elbrus is north of the main ridge and in Europe
May be you can translate this italian Wikipedia Elbrus page: there are two version. But i like your too 😉👍
Wow, I feel embarrassed that I honestly didn't know of Mt. Elbrus! It looks so inspiring. I can imagine it is frustrating if you were looking forward to something and preparing so much and then, when you are almost on the finish line, it doesn't happen. In Austria a bad incident happened where a group travelled there to climb a famous montain, and on the morning of the ascent they met another group that had a guide and he said: we are going back down, don't go today, the weather is going to turn sour. They thought the sky didn't look that bad and that they would notice early enough if something changed and just go back, so they proceeded, but the guide who said it was a local and they were tourists, misjudging how quick the weather can go in the mountains. None of them came back, they were all struck by lightning. Such accidents happen very frequently. Also a group of 10 people went on a hike during summer and got caught up in an icestorm higher up. None of them had brought alpine equipment for this day, they were just thinking day trip in summer, they all froze to death. Usually, people who are not from an area should listen to whatever the locals recommend and treat any mountain with respect, even if it is not a 4000 or 5000 metre high one.
Very right decision to turn back, when weather changes like this in the mountains, its extremely dangerous
The process is more important than the final goal, this is impressive.
Eli you make such good videos. They are not only well done, but more importantly you give each one a bit of your heart. Thanks.
A fantastic video Eli. My trip to Russia from the UK to climb Elbrus has been covid cancelled twice. Your video makes me look forward to the day I arrive in Russia and on Mount Elbrus even more. Bad luck with the weather!
Now there's a war on so you still can't go!
Bravo Eli. “Life is about small steps.” Thanks for taking us on this journey.
Hi Eli, thanks. I have been watching all of your videos unexceptionally from the very first post of your video. This year, I am coming to Russia to Carry on my study. Your videos have helped me a lot in understanding the circumstances, culture, language, food, tradition, believe, and much more. I love you so much Eli ❤️
Wow, such a beautifully done video! It reminded me of my mountaineering trips to south America a few years ago, I kinda miss the harsh mountain life now (although I was staying in a tent eheh)! Too bad you got bad weather, the mountain is always the one deciding if you can climb it or not, and at least the whole team made the good call!
Also I didn't know mountains in the caucasus were so high and beautiful, I hope to go there one day now!
Привет Элина,
С большим удовольствием и эмоциями открываю для себя ваше видео о восхождении на Эльбруз.
Действительно, я поднялся на эту гору в 1996 году в компании небольшой группы французов.
В то время еще существовало старое здание Приютского заповедника, внутри которого было многриочиотисиотисиотисиотогиотисиотоготоведника
После нескольких дней акклиматизации мы прибыли на вершину очень счастливые и уставшие, это линыл ойто
Еще одно воспоминание, связанное с этим приключением, моя встреча с молодой женщиной, Мариной, с великолепными волосами, такими же, как у вас, которая была переводчиком группы. Я был приятно удивлен твоим сходством.
Поздравляю с этим достижением.
С уважением из Франции
Beautiful place reminds me a bit of my country, New Zealand's Southern Alps
It is wonderful. I have been to the Caucuses on the Georgian side (Kazbeg) but I am too old now to take on something like Elbrus. I did climb Kilimanjaro 10 years ago, so I could feel your pain.
Absolute badass. You and your channel are fabulous. Love learning about your country and through your experiences. Thank you!
Poles...The struggle is real and you will always remember it. This was so enjoyable to watch. Always good luck.
Well done for attempting it Eli !!!
Thank you Eli for the fantastic insight on climbing Elbrus via two routes (the one in this video, from the South, and the North one in another video). I am also climbing and enjoying the mountaineering experience, vicariously, with you! :) Thanks for all the videos on the different regions of Russia! Regards from Canada!
Fantastic video! You're phenomenal, Eli!
Wow! Wow! Wow! I can't think of a post that I have enjoyed more, lately. Skillfully executed. Encore!
Eli,this is the most amazing YT video that I have ever seen! Your perseverance to do this is really impressive! For a group of newbie climbers this is a lifetime achievement to be proud of and a keepsake for the rest of your lives. I salute you courageous people ! I think that you can accomplish any challenge Eli !
Wao! Eli I never know that you are a climber too. It's really loving activity to climb a peak in any part of the world, especially in Russia. I am an adventure enthusiast and living in the confluence of the world great mountain ranges and the most dominant peak here is Nanga Parbat. I would like you to invite my region for such a small adventures activity, in the Himalayas, where you will meet more diverse people from all over the world and will enjoy your trip to the North of Pakistan.
Please comment or inbox, if you are interested in the said adventure trip to the Himalayas or the Karakuram .
Once again thank you for your lovely videos of Russia, which was one no go are or even unthinkable are for us, now thanks to the government of Pakistan which makes it thinkable to visit Russia for such adventures activity.
Keep exploring and sharing your lovely videos of the world!
Those are some absolutely incredible views! This was such a wonderful video. Regardless of the fact that you didn't make it to the peak this time, you still got to experience the mountain and share some views of a lifetime. What you said at the end rings very true-- life is not about the end destinations, but rather enjoying the journey and the *process*.
Well done! Very nice clip! I appreciate your effort to make this video.
You have convinced me to go to Elbrus in the future.
Very nice final idea:
Enjoy the trip and the process, it's more important then the final destination.

I went to Jungfraujoch at 3.571 m.
I've met a girl from New York in the top of the mountains and spent together some very memorable moments in the Alps.
An experience I will never forget.
Спустя 3 месяца путешествия по России на мотоцикле могу сказать: я люблю прекрасные пейзажи и людей этой страны! Политика - отдельная тема.
gledaj i skijati zna .Thx Eli from Rusia❄
Thank you Eli for this beautiful feelings. I love mountains so much. Appreciate it!
That was such an inspiring video. The feeling of connection with nature, people and even your own body must really be something. I am really considering climbing mount Elbrus too now. Thanks for the effort you put in this video!
I'm from Susa Valley, Turin, Italy, a valley surrounded by the Alps, the highest mountains of western Europe. We love walking in mountanous tracks, but we have never reached such high tops. The maximum height I reached is 3000 m above s.l. on the Rocciamelone mountain. Your video is wonderful. Thanks a lot
A truly beautiful and inspirational video! Thanks so much for sharing.
Mount Elbrus Is Majestic.
What a scenery, what a Trip, thank you and your group for that, amazing Eli!
🥰🥰The Night Sky @ the beginning was mesmerizing,,😍😍👏👏🙏🙏
what an amazingly well done video! Commercial quality! Thanks for sharing this, what a journey you had.
Awesome! Thank you! Can't wait to visit this great country!
Super cool video! ❤ I can see how much effort you put into making it 🥰
Simply beautiful and amazing. I agree Probably your best video yet.
Wow ,your a amazing young lady. Love the Historic content , cultural, adventure sides of your homeland. Love your pride of where u come from and sharing it .
AbFab, Eli! You are a champion. Thank you for sharing this grand adventure with us. And I loved your philosophical perspectives on life as a journey; not merely a destination.
Amazing video. Thank you Eli for this wonderful experience. 👌👌
Wooow😍 Elina, you’re amazing!!!!💥 Thank you for this soo interesting video that I’ve ever seen🤗 I wish you more and more travels and great experiences✨
incredible u made your journey so accessible and real.Thankyou....inspired
Starting my 7 summit soon. Can't wait to climb this.
Beautiful video, Eli! You certainly are brave and adventuresome as well as talented. You had more work to do than the others, because you had to take your camera and constantly think about how to set up your perspectives and position the camera to get all those magnificent views and hiking shots. Your editing was superb. I am so impressed! And you are so right that, "Life is about small steps."
Spectacular. Added to my list of must-see places!
The TH-cam algorithm is showering me with your videos. I am sure that is a good sign for the channel. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for incredible video. Earlier I didn’t think about climb in mountain, but now….
Amazing mountain, amazing views.
@@ElifromRussia Sure. Those tourist destinations like that should be more advertised. You and other Russians have been making a good job.
Eli: this was such an excellent video on many levels, some of which you touched upon in your final thoughts. Congratulations! In my view, you made it to the summit after all making a five star video.
Very well done video! Quite a memorable experience for you at Elbrus.
Hey Eli, that was Amazing❤️. I felt like watching a thriller movie. So much Love and Wishes for you😌. Go on!
Beautiful!! The tallest mountain in Europe. A friend of mine from Fulton, NY was supposed to be there now climbing it but with everything going on he had to cancel his trip.
I love all of your videos! So much amazing insight into your beautiful country. I hope to visit one day very soon.
Mount Elbrus is beautiful mountain, lovely nature and peace environment. People in the village of Terskol also very friendly and nice people, its against the streotype about Russian I know from media. I am blessed that I went to mountain, did aclimatization to observatory and Pastukhov and experience delay in summit due to stormy weather..Elbrus is not an easy mountain to climb , the biggest handicap is the rapid changing n unpredictable weather ...love Elbrus, love Caucasian , love Russia...excellent documentary Eli🤩❤
Thank you for sharing your trip of Mt Elbrus:))
Really nice video, thank you Elina!
Amazing video Eli!!
I'm planning on doing Elbrus next year if possible. Thanks for the reference to Climbingbrothers. I'll check them out.
Oh my god eli. You are awesome. Im so glad i found your channel. You inspire me. Спасибо
I will be subscribing to your channel for sure !! I'm sorry you didn't get to summit !! Thank you for all the wonderful photography 📸
So sorry to know you did not reach the peak, but going down in that situation was the best decision. The most important thing is that you went back safe. Just wait for another trial. Hopefully, you can still keep your spirit for Elbrus.
Ski poles are what we call these in Vermont, U.S.A. We use sticks to make a campfire with. Excellent video.
Great video, live goes on & try again to reach the peak. Cheers
Знаешь ли ты, дорогая Элина, что ты подобна яркому свету!
Do you know, dear Elina, that you are like a bright light!
What an amazing vlog. I randomly searched this mountain and ended up watching 👀 your amazing vlog. Thanks so much for sharing this. What a beautiful place. Hopefully one day when travel opens I can leave New Zealand and visit this amazing place
😘💪🏼👏🏻👏🏻 Beautiful life experience. Inspirational, indeed. Eli, incredibly exciting video of an adventure that not everyone can, will experience in real life, but only on video like yours. Well done to you and your friends. Be proud. 🤝👏👏💪😚💪💐🌹🇷🇺
Best thing I've seen on TH-cam in a long time.
It has been a wonderful watch following you and your group on the experience of mountain trekking in the Caucases. Yes, one day I may get to Russia. Thank you Eli
This is just an awesome adventure. Very informative video. When you have children I am sure they will never be bored. Have a wonderful weekend and stay safe. Thank you for sharing your time with us today from Henrico County Virginia
Yo Eli, You are my Newest Superhero. Thank you for sharing your Amazing Adventure. Yeah Russia Hooked me up with your channel. Looking forward to more of your videos. Hello from mid Michigan USA.
Just saw this in the story ,
Came here saw it ,
Not disappointed,
This is very good editing skills,
Subscribed.
Waiting for other contents.👍👍
What an adventure you had there! I'm glad you took us along with your excellent photography and narration.
That mountain is over 18,300 feet high. That does take some getting used to in order to get enough oxygen in your lungs.
Love to you and keep the videos coming!
This makes me feel good since I ski at an altitude of 12,900 feet…of course I take a lift to that height! (Not hiking it) But I will take it @ 55 years old. This is such an interesting vlog!
Thank you for video. Your English is fantastic. Well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 you said very beautiful thoughts. 💪🏼
Amazing videos. You are just so wonderful and you gave me so much information and inspired me at the same time. Thank you very much. God bless, safe adventures and с Рождеством Христовым и Новым Годом

Oh what an experience in Mount Elbrus....
Excellent episode I have ever been seen.Congratulations Eli
From Kuwait
Excellent video!!! Greetings from Greece!! ❤❤
This is your best video so far. (Okay I haven't seen them all, but this is best I've seen.))
I'd say they are "trekking poles"; there are also "hiking sticks" or "walking sticks", or less common, a "hiking staff" (think Gandalf). ("Walking stick" might also be the "cane" used by the elderly.)
Спасибо и люблю из США!
Looks epic!
Mount Elbrus Is Wonderful.
Good luck for your next climb😁.
Such a great experience, thank you for sharing it! I would love to try this one day, if only i wasn't afraid of heights :)
Congratulatons! It's a heavy sport, you are a winning!
And not a mask in sight! Wonderful! 👏🏼👏🏼👌🏽
That was Amazing
