1. Geographical Information
Peak Sovetskikh Alpinistov is located in the central Pamir in the eastern part of the Yazgulemsky Ridge in the Peak Revolyutsii massif. The average height of the ridge in this area is around 5900 m. The height of the summit is 6420 m (barometrically). The Peak Revolyutsii massif, together with Peak Sovetskikh Alpinistov and Peak Sovetskikh Profsoyuzov, crowns a grandiose cirque - the 5900 m plateau, the beginning of the Grumm-Grzhimaylo Glacier. To the south of the summit lies the Khabarvid-Khaya valley, to the east is Peak Sovetskikh Profsoyuzov, and to the west rises the massive Peak Revolyutsii.
2. Possible Ascent Routes
All possible routes to the summit of Peak Sovetskikh Alpinistov start from the 5900 m plateau of the Grumm-Grzhimaylo Glacier. There are three such paths:
- Ascending from the south via a snow-ice slope to the 6300 m col, from where you can reach the summit via rocks.
- Ascending to the same col from the north via a snowy slope with bergschrunds.
- Ascending to the summit via the north-eastern ridge. The route from the Khabarvid-Khaya glacier is the most challenging and dangerous and is hardly passable.
