Report of the second Moscow Selection
We have a few things to tell about the second Moscow Selection round for "Expedition-Trophy 2008". As you know, the selections appeared to be fruitful — in the end of a very long day, both for participants and the Organizers, 5 teams were formed to take part in the 2008 Race: "Victoria", "8th of March", "Sugupa" and two more teams with no less peculiar names: "Two" and "Three".

Top Secret. Report of "Standing at the Oka River" Military Trainings
In the morning of October, 27th the fog was so thick that even the Organizers didn't manage to find the path and even each other at once. It crossed our minds that the Veterans may get lost somewhere in the fog, but such thoughts were scattered by the daybreak and the mass appearance of the participants' vehicles.

Hi there, have you seen a lighthouse around?
On August, 4th the third Selection round for "Expedition-Trophy 2008" took place near Novosibirsk. The meeting of the participants was set for 8:30 am. in one of the "Expedition" stores. Traditionally the participants of the selection did not impress the Organizers with punctuality. That is why only at past 9 am the applicants received 2 boxes with personal envelopes, description of the first task, compass and... a newspaper. In their letter to the participants the Organizers paid special attention to the fact that their goal is not to accomplish the tasks faster or better than the others. Their main objective was to find people with the same glow in the eyes, people to be further relied upon in the most difficult situations.
