How did you spend last New Year's Eve? It's unlikely it was atop Mt Elbrus in Russia. For several years this determined, some say crazy, group of Russians spend each New Year atop the world's tallest mountains. Then again they're doing what mountain climbers love to do, climb! The tradition began here, in their home country Russia, atop Russia's tallest peak, Mt Elbrus on New Year's Eve 2001.
