traverse of peaks 5150 m and 5100 m from east to west. Peaks 5150 and 5100 m are located in the main ridge of the western part of the Zavlaisky ridge and close the Kок-Kyik gorge. The traverse is made from east to west.
1st day: approaches from the intermediate base camp of the Sverdlovsk expedition (3800 m), located in the upper reaches of the X Kок-Kyik gorge near the lake, under the beginning of the route. Overnight on the moraine, height 4200 m.
2nd day: exit at 6:00 am through a stream flowing from under the glacier, which descends from the slopes of peaks 5600 m (loss of height up to 100 m), then ascent to the glacier and firn slope into the gap between peaks 5600 and 5150 m.
Route features:
- Traverse in good weather conditions takes 9 hours.
- In bad weather, there are places for a tent practically along the entire route.

- The peak was found to be free of snow, consisting of layered rocky rocks of a scaly type.
- It drops steeply to the south, in terraces.
- The ridge at the peak has cornices, hanging in the eastern direction - when passing, caution and insurance are required.
