Peak Choibolsan (4191 m)
Western ascent — Cat. 1B (Fig. 6)
Peak Choibolsan, resembling a rock tower, is located in the watershed ridge system, in the upper reaches of the Ozernaya River valley. The northern side is covered in ice, with rock ridges approaching from three sides, connecting it to:
- the Ozernaya peak to the east,
- the unnamed "4200 m" peak to the south,
- Almaty Alagir to the west.
The northern side of the massif drops off with a nearly sheer wall, whose steepness decreases somewhat at the base.
