Description of the first ascent of Dalar peak (3981 m) via the East Ridge, grade 5A, climbed by a group from Moscow's Spartak team in 1964.
Brief Characteristics of Dalar Peak
Dalar Peak (elevation 3981 m above sea level) is located in the western part of the Central Uplift of the Main Ridge. It is 25 km west-southwest of Elbrus. The chain of peaks (Filter, Zamok, Dvoinyashka, Dalar, and Shokoladny) bounds the cirque of the Bolshoy Kichkinokol glacier from the south, east, and west, giving rise to the eponymous river, which flows into the Uzunkol River. The first ascent to Dalar Peak was made in 1937 via route 3B cat. sl. After 1960, other routes were climbed and classified on Dalar:
- 5B on the North Face;
- 5B on the NE ridge;
- 4B from Shokoladny Peak;
- 4A from the south. The ridge from the east remained, which was traversed in the reverse direction (on descent) by a group from CSKA in 1962 during the traverse of the Kichkinokol horseshoe. The route along the Eastern ridge is very logical.

Report on the ascent of the northeastern wall of Dalar peak by a team from the Spartak DSO sports society in 1964.
Team Composition
The MGS DSO "Spartak" team was formed in 1961. During 1961-1963, team members completed a series of climbs up to category 5B difficulty. Already in 1963, the team considered it possible to participate in the All-Union team competitions in the class of technically complex ascents. In July 1963, the team completed part of the declared route, but an earthquake forced the group to return. They completed a route on East Dombay-Ulgen via the south wall, which took 1st place in Moscow. The team composition, as per the application submitted to the judging committee, was determined to be 10 people. As a result of training ascents, the following group composition was determined:
- Kavunenko V. D. — Master of Sports of the USSR — leader
- Shataev V. N. — 1st sports category
- Polyakov L. D. — 1st sports category
- Magomedov Kh. K. — 1st sports category

Ascent description to the Dalar peak via the northern wall of 5th difficulty category, route characteristics, and its passage by a group of mountaineers.
Dalar via NE wall, cat. 5B
I. Brief Geographical Description
The Dalar peak, with an elevation of 3981 meters above sea level, is located in the western part of the Central Uplift of the Main Ridge, southwest of the Elbrus peak (Gvandra area, Kichkinokol arch).
II. Sporting Characteristics of the Route and Its Exploration
Dalar is one of the most beautiful peaks in the Caucasus. The slightly northward-leaning rocky pyramid has long attracted the attention of mountaineers. The northeast wall, rising to almost 4000 meters, seemed particularly challenging yet interesting.
The sporty exploration of the walls began in 1956 when a group led by N.M. Semenov first traversed the NE wall up to the base of the tower and then deviated left from the route onto the relatively simple eastern ridge. In 1962, a group from the "Trud" sports society, led by V.V. Stepanov, repeated this path (up to the tower) and then straightened it, deviating from the original route in the last upper part (ascending directly up the tower to the summit). See photo #1.
In 1964, a group of Spartakovites led by V.D. Kavunenko followed Stepanov's path.
