Elbrus was just pure fun!

Elbrus was a trip I took when my son was about 18 months old. Becoming a mother was and remains the achievement in my life I am most proud of. But I still wanted to retain some of my identity as a woman and also keep my seven summits dream alive.
Elbrus is in the Caucasus Mountains in South Russia and is the tallest mountain in Europe at 5642 meters.
This trip was a chance to squeeze back into my climbing gear, post childbirth and go out and show myself I can still ‘do this’!
It was a fun trip where I met some great people and got to visit a part of Russia few get to see.
