1. Brno peak via the South Ridge, 1B.

From the alp camp along the left-bank trail of Mizhirgi gorge (1.5 hrs), across the boulder-strewn glacier (20–30 min) and through the "pocket" between the slopes of Brno and the left-bank moraine (30 min) to where the glacier turns west (Cheget-Mizhirgi). Bypassing the base of the South-East ridge of Brno peak, up the grassy slope and along the trail beside the stream into the moraine "pocket" of the glacier flowing from the North Ridge of Misses-Tau. Traverse the icefall on the right via the talus shelves on the South slope of Brno, emerging onto the plateau; 2–2.5 hrs from the clearing.

From the plateau, ascend the talus South slopes of Brno peak, gradually bearing left onto the South Ridge and then along the ridge. The ascent to the summit along the rocky ridge (in rope teams) takes 2–3 hrs from the plateau.

The descent via the ascent route takes 3.5–4 hrs. Hazards: rockfall hazard on the shelves when traversing the icefall.
