Forosskiy Kant — 5

On the right edge of the western part of the massif, 2B

From the alpinist camps under Forosskiy Kant, proceed about 250 m towards Baidarskie Vorota until a sharp turn of the road. If you go a little further, then, turning around, you can see the inscription "Тележенко" in the lower part of the sheer wall. The start of the main part of the route is to the right of this inscription.

From the road turn, first along the trail, and img-0.jpeg

Then up simple rocks to the right of the sheer wall to the middle of the counterforce, 10 m below a long and large crevice. There is a station on 3 rock hooks. (R0: 50 m, 40°, category I; 50 m, 50°, I).

On the R1–R2 section (key to the route!) — first up 10 m to a steep crevice, and then along it. In its middle part, a small tree grows. Above the crevice is a large pine, clearly visible from below. On it is an insurance point (R1–R2: 50 m, 70°, IV).

On the R2–R3 section — up and left 40 m along a large internal corner, turning into a chimney (R2–R3: 50 m, 60°, II).

On the R3–R5 sections — up and slightly left along internal corners and small walls. Further, the steepness of the rocks decreases (R3–R5: 150 m, 60–70, II).

On the last section — up and to the right about 100 m along simple rocks to the exit to the yayla (R5–summit: 100 m, 60–50, I).

The length of the main part of the route is about 400 m. The passage time is 2–3 hours.
