A 5A category complexity route up the southeast wall of Forosskiy Kant with an exit to the summit through an inner corner.

On the right side of the southeast wall, 5A (option 4B)

The route passes on the left side of a wide internal corner, which cuts vertically through the entire wall. The internal corner leads to a lowering of the ridge between the peaks of Forossky Kant and Mshatka-Kaya and is a conditional boundary between them. The last section of the route, which passes through a sheer wall with two small ledges, is the most difficult. It can be replaced by an ascent along the несложной upper part of the wide internal corner. In this case, the complexity of the route is reduced by half a category (option). From the road, near the alpine camps, 200 m up along the trail, and then 50 m along simple rocks to a grotto located at the base of the internal corner (R0: 250 m, 20–40, no tech). On the section R1–R2 — from the grotto up, first on the right side of the internal corner, and then along smooth slabs to a long horizontal shelf. Further (section R2–R3), traverse along the shelf 20 m to the left (R1–R2: 40 m, 70°, III+; 20 m, 70°, II). On the section R3–R5 — up along a steep, smooth wall with a small number of cracks (R3–R5: 30 m, 75°, V+; 50 m, 75°, V). On the section R5–R6 — up and to the right along rocks of medium complexity (R5–R6: 40 m, 70°, III). On the section R6–R7 — up and to the left 20 m along simple rocks to the base of a large vertical internal corner (R6–R7: 20 m, 60°, I). On the last section of the route — up along the left sheer 30-meter wall of the internal corner with two small ledges. The ledges are passed head-on (R7–peak: 30 m, 80°, V+).

Description of the 2Б route "up the left chimney" to Chelebi mountain, an alternative via the chimney, with recommendations on equipment and tactics for passing.

Description of the "left chimney" route 2B on Chelebi, variant through the chimney.

Written by Anatolik Eremeev on September 25, 2011 The approach to the route from the parking area near the spring takes 40 minutes, from the road — about an hour. R0–R1. The start is from a tree at the base of the chimney. The first rope length is "garden-veggie" climbing between bushes and trees. Nothing complicated. The station is on a tree before the "plug". (40 m II) R1–R2. Unambiguous climbing. It's impossible to get lost.

  • "Probka" (plug)
  • "Probka kolodets" (plug well) The station is on a tree after the second "plug". (35 m: 5 m IV, 25 m I, 5 m IV) R2–R3. The crux rope length. This is where the most interesting part begins. From the tree, approach the "plug" before entering the deep dark chimney. If the rocks are slippery, you can hang a foot loop in the "hourglass". Then move a couple of meters up the chimney. Climb in "raspor" (opposition) — you won't be able to do it otherwise :). Protection:

"Chimney in a chimney", 4A on Chelebi: a detailed description of an interesting route with varied climbing and chimneys, recommendations on equipment and ascent techniques.

"Chimney in the Chimney", 4A (Chelebi)

Route thread A very interesting and beautiful route, abundant with diverse climbing, especially memorable for its chimneys. Judging by its condition, it is rarely climbed and requires clearing of ledges from stones. Recommended for ascent by well-prepared groups. It is better to have experience in chimney climbing, although the route is well-suited for getting acquainted with this truly interesting and enjoyable type of climbing. The terrain on the route does not lend itself to frequent use of protection, but there are places where pitons can be used. In principle, for the passage of the route, it will be sufficient to have:

  • several medium-sized friends,
  • a set of stoppers,
  • seven to ten quickdraws.
