The summit of Pik Sverdlova is a huge cornice hanging to the east; ridges branch off to the NE, SE, and SSE. On the northeastern part of the summit, there is a rocky outcrop where a bust of Ya. M. Sverdlov was installed and a cairn was built, with flags of the Russian Federation and Kyrgyzstan erected. Descent from the summit is possible via any of the three branching ridges. Our group descended via the ascent route. The route's difficulty is assessed by the group as category 5A.
