Routes

We attempted six Alpine routes, and successfully completed all but one of them. In addition, we also completed two other routes which were more like easy scrambles/hikes.

Route	Rough Grade	Date	Climbers
Un-named 3706m peak	F+	15th August	GA, CC
Un-named 3608m peak	PD	15th August	GC, ED
N face to 3716m peak	(not completed)	17th August	GC, CC
Irbistu (3967m) SW ridge	F	17th August	GA, ED
Irbistu (3967m) N ridge	AD (III)	19th August	GC, CC
Dzhaniktu (3942m) N ridge	PD+	21st August	GC, CC, ED

All routes have been graded as best as we can. However, all rock routes presented significant and continuous objective dangers in the form of loose and crumbling rock under hand and foot. All major difficulties on rock were soloed without leader placed protection.

In addition, we also climbed three new (short) single pitch trad routes at a crag a short walk from the campsite.
