terrorism and in favor of peace when they summit Mt. Everest in a climb

International Non-Commercial Investment Project”, will begin with departure
from Moscow on March 1 with Everest ascent beyond base camp to be March
24-June 1. The team of 39 climbers will approach the mountain from the
center of the Northern wall.
In anticipation of the Everest expedition, a Peace March-Memory March was
held September 19-November 3 of 2004. Those participating in the march
visited all the regions of the Northern Caucasus and almost all points of
tension. They covered over 10,000 km. and carried with them the Banner of
Peace donated by heirs of M. Yegorov and M. Kantaria, prominent heroes of
World War II.
The banner, delivered to the Everest climbers, will be part of the mission
for peace represented by the summit of Everest. The expedition will receive
live international coverage on both radio and television when banners are
lifted to peace and victory on Everest’s peak.
The expedition is looking for additional sponsors, if interested please
