Report on the ascent of Pik Bronenosets (2430 m) via the Western ridge, route category 2B (first ascent by V. Adov, 1976) Eastern Sayan, Tunkinskie Goltsy ridge, Dождевое gorge, 6.1.2 2023 I compiled this report because I was unable to find a description of the route ascended by V.G. Adov in 1976. The route has many advantages, such as diverse terrain, which will allow novice climbers to practice their skills in несложном лазанье, setting points, and moving in связках, and there is also a rappel. In addition, the route is conveniently located near the village of Arshan, which eliminates the need for tedious and multi-day approaches. On average, it takes no more than 4 hours to reach the base camp from the village (approximately 8 km and 1000 m ascent). Another advantage is the logic and beauty of the route: it runs between two beautiful peaks of the Eastern Sayan, and the climber will have a magnificent view of the panorama from the Western ridge.
