- The 4310 m peak via the Northeast ridge (a combined route, category B. Solovyov, 3B category of difficulty, fig. 18, 25). The path from the Bezengi alpine camp (a group of 4-8 people) to the upper plateau of the Western branch of the Bezengi glacier with a starting bivouac at the Kel pass is described in route 215. Across the plateau, approach the right side of the Northeast ridge of the 4310 m peak.
From the glacier, ascend an 80-90-meter slope to a saddle on the Northeast ridge of the 4310 m peak. On the saddle, turn right and traverse along the left side of the Northeast ridge to cross a 10-meter ice-and-snow couloir (rockfall, avalanches). Ascend 100-150 m up and left along simple rocks and ledges on the left side of the couloir to reach the Northeast ridge. From here, ascend 50-60 m on simple rocks. Then, ascend 120-150 m along the steep ice-and-snow Northeast ridge, leaving a gendarme on the left and ice drops on the right, to reach an ice-and-snow pad.
From the pad, ascend 80-100 m up a steep ice-and-snow Northeast ridge (cornices, protection) to approach a wall. Under the wall, traverse 20-25 m left along the boundary of rocks and snow. Then, ascend 60-70 m up and right on moderately difficult rocks to reach the Northeast ridge. Further, ascend 30-40 m to the 4310 m peak. From the Kel pass - 7-9 hours.
