Itinerary description
The actual height is supposed to be 4317m as on the tablo. So my first 14k ft altitude in Qazaqstan. Yay me.
Commencing from BAL (big Almaty lake) at 4am I was passing by the post guard that was empty.
The early part of the trail along the road after water floods is rocky and inconvenient.
Upon reaching the valley came across to slope with a tiny loose rocks, so for the next half a mile had to ascend to reach the ridge walking like in a wet cement.
Once on the ridge had to stay on the northern side yet faced a strong wind…
