Gundarev is the first person from Kazakhstan, who is taking part in the popular climbing program 7 Volcanoes and is going to climb the highest volcanoes of seven continents in the foreseeable future.
Kazakhstan's Andrey Gundarev and Russia’s Yury Sukhanov, two members of the expedition, have already taken part in several successful expeditions. These were the expedition to two 7-thousanders of the former Soviet Union - Lenin peak in Kyrgyzstan and to Korzhenevskaya peak in Tajikistan, the expedition to Aconcagua peak, highest peak in South and North America and also the expedition to McKinley peak situated in Alaska.
The composition of this expedition is different: an American replaced one Russian climber and another Russian joined the team.
