Foros kant — 7

Along the left side of the "green corner", 4a (20 m, V) (route by A. Brynza, 1991)

The western part of the massif and the most complex southeastern wall are separated by a large internal corner, descending from the summit plateau and called Green due to the moss covering it. The route starts at the base of the couloir, descending from the Green inner corner.

From the alpine camps, walk about 150 m towards Baydarskie Vorota until the beginning of the ascent to the Green corner.

From the road, start moving up the scree towards the steep wall. Having overcome a small wall, move right along the shelf to the large inner corner located on the left side of the split and turning above into a steep chimney. (R0: 100 m, 30°, easy; 8 m, 75°, III; 10 m, 40°, easy).

On the R1–R2 section — up the inner corner to the top of the split (R1–R2: 30 m, 75°, IV).

On the R2–R3 section — first 8 m up under a small overhang. Then, having overcome it, up and slightly left along the steep wall 30 m. (R2–R3: 20 m, 80°, V; 20 m, 75°, IV).

On the R3–R4 section — left and up to the left side of the Green corner (R3–R4: 40 m, 60–70°, III).

The landmark for the next section is a large pine tree 50 m from the base of the corner. On the R4–R5 section — first up and left to the old juniper. From it up along the steep inner corner to the pine tree (R4–R5: 40 m, 70°, III).

On the R5–R6 section — from the pine tree up: first along the chimney, and then along the inner corner (R5–R6: 40 m, 70°, III).

On the R6–R7 section — mainly up 100 m along the gentle walls and inner corners (R6–R7: 100 m, 60°, II). On the last section of the route — up and right along the scree to the exit to the summit plateau (R7–yaila: 100 m, 40–50, easy).

The length of the main part of the route is about 300 m. The time taken to complete the route is 3–4 hours.
