Brief description of the approach to the route
From the base camp, ascend along the trail in a southerly direction until reaching the high-altitude stony plateau (1 hour). Then cross the plateau in the direction of p. Munkhulik to the south-southwest and descend into the Ozernoe gorge (1 hour 30 minutes). Further, the path lies along the gorge along the lakes to the south, then the gorge turns right under the northern wall of p. Munkhulik. Along it, approach the base of the northern ridge (1 hour 30 minutes). The route begins with a clearly defined saddle under the northern ridge.
