Description of a Category 2 difficulty route to the summit of Chach-Khokh (4207 m) via the eastern ridge from Chach valley with a detailed analysis of the route and necessary equipment.
ROUTE DESCRIPTION to the summit of Chach-khokh, category 2B complexity (height 4107 m) via the eastern ridge, approved on 17/2-67. The summit is located in the watershed ridge (between the basins of the Genal-don and Chach-khi rivers), connecting the Kazbek plateau to the south with the peak Iriston and further to the north with S. and Y. Kaidzhany. The summit has been visited repeatedly by mountaineering groups. All ascents were made from the Chach valley. The route is classified.
Day 1
The group travels by car along the VGD to the village of Gvileti, from where it is no more than 1 hour's walk along a dirt road to the confluence of the Kebati and Chach-khi rivers. After crossing the Kebati River and then the Chach-khi River at their confluence, the group heads along a trail to the right (Chach) valley. The trail winds up the slope and leads to the first "gates" of the Chach valley (a height difference of about 300-400 m). Next, it is necessary to go up to the right. Overcoming the "ram's foreheads of the gates" along one of the shelves that divides them, you should climb up the grassy slope to a group of trees, from which a well-trodden trail begins again. Follow the trail into a wide couloir, cross a stream, after which the trail turns sharply to the right under the rocks. Following along them, it will lead to a shoulder forming the first "gates" of the valley. It takes about 1.5 hours to walk from the confluence of the rivers to the pass point of the first "gates". The "ram's foreheads" must be passed with caution and gymnastic belay.

Characteristics of the Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes in Kamchatka, description of the geographical location and the climbing route to Klyuchevskaya Sopka volcano.
Characteristics of the Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes, geographical location.
The Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes includes the highest volcanoes of Kamchatka and the most powerful glaciers of Erman and Bogdanovich. The most significant volcanoes of the group:
- The highest and most active volcano is Klyuchevskaya Sopka.
- The most technically challenging is the Kamien volcano.
- The largest in terms of glaciation area with a powerful ice dome is Plosky Dalniy (Ushkovsky) volcano. Its crater, with a depth of over 200 m, is filled with ice. Inside the crater, there is an ice cave approximately 1000 m long. The Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes is located in the center of Kamchatka, 500 km from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The nearest settlements are Kozyrevsk and Klyuchi, located 60 and 40 km away. However, there are no roads to the volcanoes even from these settlements. By a high-clearance vehicle, one can only reach the forest zone boundary; beyond that, the journey continues on foot. Approaches to the start of the routes take 2 to 4 days. The only means that allows quick access to the foot of the volcanoes remains the helicopter. Many alpinist routes of 2A–4B category of difficulty have been traversed in this area.

### Report on the Traverse of Peak 6200, Peak Korzhenevskaya, and the Four Peaks in 1969 by Dnipropetrovsk Climbers
Dedicated to the 100th anniversary of V. I. Lenin's birth
Report
on the traverse: Peak 6200 – Peak E. Korzhenevskoi – Peak Chetyrekh, made by the team of the Dnepropetrovsk Regional Committee for Physical Education and Sports on July 28 – August 15, 1969, for the USSR Climbing Championship 1969 in the traverse category.
The traversed peaks are located in the northwestern Pamir, in the Muk-su river basin. The most significant meridional ridge of the Pamir – the Academy of Sciences Range – branches out in its northern part. From Peak Akhmat Donish (6665 m) to the northwest, a powerful spur extends, bearing the peaks:
- Peak Chetyrekh (6380 m);
- Peak E. Korzhenevskoi (7105 m);
- Peak 6200. After Peak 6200, the spur sharply descends towards Muk-su.

M: 1 cm – 1 km
Description of the approach to the route
Peak 5429 m is located in a spur of the Peter the First Range, in the cirque of the southern part of the Ayu-Jilga glacier, between peak 4×6308 m on the left and p. 6215 m on the right. The length of the Ayu-Jilga glacier is about 9 km. It stretches from south to north and occupies an area of about 20 sq. km. The Ayu-Jilga river, flowing out of the glacier to the north, flows into the Muksu river, to which there are about 20 km along the Ayu-Jilga gorge. Ayu-Jilga is a rather full-flowing river, and it is not recommended to ford it; it is better to cross it on the glacier.

2. Traverse of Sofrudzhu peak from the north-east — category 2B (fig. 26)
From Dombayskaya Polyana across the bridge over the Alibek river and along the trail to the crossing over the Amanauz river. Crossing to the right bank, then along the morena and over the "baarany lby" to the Amanauzsky glacier, and along it to the terminal morena under the Zapadno-Amanauzsky glacier. Camping site. From Dombayskaya Polyana — 3–4 hours. Further (in connection!) ascend to the Amanauz pass between the peaks Glavny Amanauz and Sofrudzhu. Ascend along the right side of the heavily crevassed glacier, then, in the upper part, under the slopes of Sofrudzhu Zub exit to the middle of the glacier, as snow avalanches are possible from the slopes of Sofrudzhu Zub. Along the middle of the glacier up to the bergschrund, cross the bergschrund over a snow bridge and up the steep snow slope (50°) to the pass. Exit to the pass to the left of the rocky outcrop at the pass point.
