Description of the ascent route to the summit "Bezymyannaya" (4200 m) in Trans-Ili Alatau with a difficulty category of 4B.

Ch. Valikhanov The peak "Bezymyannaya" (4200 m) is located in a lateral ridge branching off the main ridge of Trans-Ili Alatau between the peaks Suleiman Stalsky and OPTЭ, to the northeast towards Lake Shokalsky. The northern slopes of the peak are icy with rocky outcrops, while the southern slopes are steep rocky walls and counterforts separated by couloirs (photo #1). The approach to the peak from the "Talgar" camp goes as far as the green glade below Lake Kroshka and further along the moraine of Lake Shokalsky; we approach the beginning of the ridge where a night's stay is organized. Approach time: 4–5 hours. Description of the ascent route The ascent path goes to the northeastern ridge. The exit to the ridge is made along the third couloir descending from the northern slope, in the direction of a characteristic rocky finger resembling the head of the idol Aku-Aku from Easter Island described by Thor Heyerdahl. The lower part of the couloir: snowy wide The upper part of the couloir:

Ascent to the peak of **Choybalsan** (4191 m) from the west, category 1B difficulty level, via a glacier and a rocky scree couloir, duration 6 hours.

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. Fig. 6

Traversing Chkalov and Fizkulturnik peaks in Zailiyskiy Alatau, 3A complexity category, duration 10-11 hours.

Chkalova — Fizkultnik traverse, cat. 3A Route description. The starting point of the route is described in the ascent to Peak Chkalova via the Northeast ridge. The descent from the summit of Chkalova goes towards the summit of Fizkultnik along the destroyed ridge, which leads to the upper part of the Til glacier. Crossing its moraine, approach the heavily destroyed rocks. Overcoming the gendarme, proceed to the main, northern point of the Fizkultnik summit. Ascend via the outer corner (12–15 m), which leads to a ledge running along the western side of the summit tower (piton belay). From the main northern summit, descend in a southerly direction to the Northeast summit and, overcoming it, head southwest through a firn basin towards the western summit. The ascent to the western summit of Fizkultnik is along the ridge, and from it, at a distance of 200 m, is a technically straightforward path to the Southeast summit. Descend from the Southeast summit to the col between Peak Komsomola and the summit of Fizkultnik. From here, descend to the right branch of the Bogdanovich glacier and further down the glacier to the initial bivouac site in the area of the Talgar pass. The traverse takes 10–11 hours. Recommendations: Number of participants — 6–8 people. Initial bivouac on the moraine of the Bogdanovich glacier.

Description of the category 1B route to the summit of Chkalov from the west through the Til hanging glacier and the inclined ledge.

Chkalova, 1B cat. diff. from the west Route description. From the Chimbulak ski resort, ascend to the Talgar Pass. In the southeast direction, beyond the tongue of the Bogdanovich Glacier, the hanging Til Glacier is visible. Follow the trail between Shkolnik Peak (on the right) and a rocky outcrop (on the left) to reach the glacier, and, crossing it, approach the rocks to the left of the Til Glacier. After traversing about 50 meters across the "ram's foreheads," reach an inclined ledge. Follow the ledge to reach a scree couloir, and ascend it to a snowy plateau. Cross the plateau in an easterly direction and approach a couloir descending between the summit and the ridge. Moving up the couloir (avalanche risk!), reach a narrow couloir branching off to the left. Enter this couloir and ascend, turning right. Continue up moderately difficult rock terrain to reach the summit. Descend via the ascent route. Recommendations: Number of participants: 8–10 people. Initial bivouac at Talgar Pass.

Description of the ascent route to Mayakovsky Peak via Mynzhilki Cape and the Ordzhonikidze Northwest Glacier.

The approach is via Mynzhilki cape past the Black rock. Climb up the gully between the moraine and talus slope to the left, towards peak O. Voiny. Continue along the moraine ridges to the south along the trail to the first rocky spur on the left (peak Kholodnye Per'ya). Here, on the rocks, yellow-painted crosses are drawn, giving the name to the overnight stays. Further: Turn east behind the rocks from "Kresty", Traverse the talus slopes, Walk along the Severo-Zapadny Ordzhonikidze glacier. The final steep ascent before the foot of peak Mayakovsky (talus slope between the ice and rocks) is very prone to rockfall. Behind it, turning left, ascend the talus couloir to the saddle (4.5 hours). From here, climb along the rocky ridge to the west on the right via slabs — to the summit. | 1–30°, 50 m, I | | | | --------------- | --------------- | -------------- | | 2–70°, 5 m, III | 5–60°, 8 м, II | 8–0°, 15 м, I |
