- Suychikty via North Buttress of the West Ridge. The route is rocky, Category 1B difficulty (fig. 5, 87, 95, 99). Length — 700 m, elevation gain — 400 m, time — 3–4 hours. The approach path from "Kirgizata" alpine camp (group of 2–12 people) to the initial bivouac at the first terminal moraine of the Beketty valley, above its fork, see route 91. From the initial bivouac, turn left and ascend the grassy slope to the left of a rocky outcrop. Above the outcrop, turn right and approach the North Buttress of Suychikty’s West Ridge via possible snowy scree. About 1 hour from the initial bivouac. From here, ascend easy broken rocks and scree on the gradually narrowing North Buttress for 300–400 meters under the West Ridge’s gendarme. Bypass the gendarme via simple rocks on the left side (belaying), and reach the West Ridge behind it. On the ridge, turn left and ascend easy broken rocks on a gentle 250–300-meter West Ridge to the summit of Suychikty. 2–2.5 hours from the start of the buttress.
