Krasnoflotets
The low, sharp triangle of Krasnoflotets peak (4100 m) is located in the southeastern part of the Karaugom plateau, in the Tsey range, between the Northern Double-peak to the south and the Krasnoarmeyets peak to the northeast.
From the Northern branch of the Tsey glacier, Krasnoflotets is not visible, as it is embedded in the Karaugom plateau. A low ice saddle connects the Krasnoflotets peak with the Bivouachnaya peak, located northwest of the peak in the center of the Karaugom plateau.
In 1939, A. Komarov, K. Kuzmin, A. Petrov, and M. Rabinovich ascended the peak via the only existing route at that time.
Two small rocky ridges rising from the Karaugom plateau remain unclimbed.
- Krasnoflotets via the Northeast ridge (combined route, 2A category of complexity, Fig. 20, 27). The path from the KSP of the Tsey region or from the village of Dzinaga (group of 4-20 people) to the saddle of the Tsey range between the Krasnoarmeyets peak to the left and the Krasnoflotets peak to the right, with an initial bivouac on the platforms of the Western ridge of the Bivouachnaya peak, is described in routes 83 and 114. On the saddle, turn right and ascend a steep 180-200-meter ice-and-snow slope (cornices), then climb the heavily destroyed and snow-covered simple Northeast ridge to reach the Krasnoflotets peak. From the initial bivouac, it takes 4-5 hours. Descent is via the ascent route.
