The territorial Caucasus is between the Black, Caspian and Azov Seas. It consists of the Main Caucasian Ridge and its surrounding areas. The highest mark is 5,642 (Elbrus Gate). Elbrous is a two-tier cone of a dried volcano. The west peak has a height of 5,642 m and a distance of 5,621 m. The alpine classification of Elbrous is estimated to be 2A snow ice, two peaks 2B. There are other, more complex routes, such as Elbrous (Z) on C-Z rib 3A. Traditionally, the Grand Caucasus is divided into three parts: the Western Caucasus (from the Black Sea to Elbrus), Central Caucasus (from Elbrous to Kazbek) and East Caucasus (from Kazbek to the Caspian Sea).

Historical footage. Hawks can be attributed to early times. In Chinese sources, about the 2nd, up to N.E., mentions the O-kut tribe (then the name of "Turk" was not yet available). This is a Chinese version of the name of the tribe, which is called the Ogur in Turk and is formed by the words of some Turkic tribes, as in the Tarbagaty and Kobdo districts, which are referred to in Chinese sources as the site of the o-Kut settlements, as is known as the Turk Territory. The name of the goose comes from the word "ok." "OK" in the Turkic language means "plem." In those days, that word was translated into Chinese as "plem" (e.g., he-Oki = 10 tribes). According to this word, "hoose" is formed by joining the "ok" letter-- that is, in the old Turkic language, the end of the plural, and without being called "net" means "Turkic tribes." The name of the goose is first used in the first inscription found on the banks of the Barlak River (Ulu-kem = entering Enisay) It says, “Six of the Oguz tribes”. There are six tribes in one tribe. Judging by the fact that these writings are about bai, it is worth thinking that the oges have existed in this valley in ancient times by forming an alliance. The Hachpes of Orkhon do not differentiate between gus and geek türks, moreover, the oges formed the foundation of the Khan. Auggie and Goek Turkie are the same. The word "Turk" was a political name. Göktürki belongs to the same ethnic group of the kind of Turkic as the oges, i.e. the oges and the Goek Turks are members of the same kind. The origin of the 6-7 century trawl (Gyuk-Turk) from this group of oguz is indicated in Chinese sources. In the documents of the Tangov period (Tang-su and Kiu Tang-shou and four different translations). Nine tribes (Nine Ogooses, sometimes "nine Türok tribes" are referred to as "normals of nine tribes (Gök Turki) and sometimes "nine tribes of Toles." So... ♪.

Despite day temperatures above 30, the fall is approaching. The nights got cold, the fields took off the harvest, the sun-burned grass is no longer happy, and finally the wind is the true satellite of the coming fall. The confusing conflict has become stronger. The lemans are scattered by birds, the wind blows, the mountains are called to themselves, and it becomes more difficult to choose. In the past weekends, the choices were on the mountains. At the company of friends from the Broadcasting Club, we went to the mountains to visit one of the peaks of the Pist-Oshten mountain node located on the territory of the Caucasus Biosphere Reserve, Mount Oshten. The launch came out of the Instructor cheek, and the route was to go to Lake Psenodach, then through Fisht-Oshtenski, to the Fisht shelter, where the night was supposed to be. On the same day, depending on the weather and time of the route, it was planned to lay down the peak of Mount Oshten. On the second day, through the Armenian and Guseripple transshipment, we were supposed to go back to the Instructor Valley. In fact, the route was changed. When we left Krasnodar on two cars in Guseripple, we arrived at the place at midnight. While they got the bills to the Reserve and made sure the cars didn't get up from a downward section of the asphalt road to get to the Instructor Square, we had to go back to the Party Pole for a night. Thank you for coming a little later, Pasha, who delivered the whole team up to the Instructor Square in the morning at his Mitsubishi IO. We've been up and we've lost time on the asphalt road. In the end, the track of our camping trip is that: the first day we've had a "supermatras"-- little of what we slept through and went out late, we went up to Osten's glacier circus and set up a camp there. In the end, after lunch, we've already had a hard time eating and falling asleep. While the sun was there, it was very good, hot, but when the clouds came in, it became very uncomfortable - the temperature falls very large! The night of jee, when we went to bed, there was +8, and in the morning the veteran sides of the tents were cured. It's hot again. The weather is very counterfeit! By the way, dawn was very beautiful: Fisht's clouds are trying to penetrate the circus: On the second day, after breakfast, we were supposed to go up to the top of Osten, on the cool slope, then go down to the Fish-Osten transshipment, and through Fish's shelter, get back. They ran fast on the top, the view is very interesting! Great! Top circus: Photo for memory (I and Misha zt): Nadya's squeezing the colors open: And then there was a launch. Very interesting launch. For me, the man who was in the hills for the second time was very interesting. Hope is more interesting for the first time. The grassy slope was fine. Here's the bump... Larissa's tube was very well written about this in the report of last year's visit to Osten: "I'm staying on a solid fireplace to get out of the shoe of small stones, and suddenly I can't make myself step on this moving unstable surface. The cold wave of panic slowly crawled on the back, intercepting breathing, and it's starting to squeeze my mind when Sashin pulled me out of the chain. If it wasn't for him, I probably still stood there. I'll never be able to describe the feelings that led me when I clutch my teeth first step. I can't describe because they just weren't there, I turned my fear off with all emotions, feelings and thoughts." I had a feeling less acute, but Nadia described everything just the same: Anyway, when the whole group was downstairs, Nadia and I were only halfway through. The mood went up and the smiles didn't leave our faces, but then I didn't want to smile at all: Starting down (on the background of Pescha-s): Somewhere in the middle of the smiling down of a limestone who's hard to catch with his hands, they're just starting to fall apart. Misha's on the radio said they went to the shelter, so we went on a part of the road together. After lunch at the Fišt shelter, the entire group moved towards the Armenian crossing. It's a very simple one, followed by the Guseriply transshipment, too. There was a cloud in the sky, it was already partying, so it was fast. I think we should've gone back to the Instructor's cheek at night, but Misha's been looking at a pathway map that gave us a chance to cut down a minimum of 1, 5-2 hours. Come on. Big plus I didn't have to go up, but minus went down the woods. I don't know who, but I'm not in the woods, but the alpic is much more interesting. But you didn't have to choose, you had to hurry. In the end, the flashlights didn't even have to be delivered, we went out to the asphalt. A further 6-7 km on the asphalt road down to the Party Pole (this part of the path Pasha cuts us on the SUV) and we're on the cars. It's over.

The weather on the coast in May is generally stable: rain is rare, about 20 degrees of heat. The sea is still quite cold (approximately 15 degrees), but very often we bathe at sea for health purposes. There are differences in the mountains: sometimes rains, days are hot, temperatures can fall to +7° C at night. The permanent participants in our pawn tours on Crimea have noticed such a pattern: if one year on the weather is perfect and without rain, the next will be the opposite. But it is not worth the rain: it is usually after rainfall that the strongest marriages and the most true friendship are born. Crimea: The nature of the peninsula of the Crimean Mountains is considered low. That's what it is, the heights are not exactly the ones on the Caucasus. The highest half-east is Ay Petri (1,234 m above sea level). However, constant ups and downs do not allow for the designation of the Crimea Centre as " mathematical " . Scales, ridges, Yayla... When we go to Mount Crimea, we'll have to hide. The paths will go down and up the valleys, stones and forests. The Crimean forest is very fabulous: the fat layer of leaf on the ground, huge brown beams, wild fruit trees and many streams and sources. Local endemic is often found in the forest: Crimean reindeer. Some reindeer Turks come at night to drink water. The small labour of nature ' s advocates almost restored the population of rare species. In addition, during a walking walk on the Crimea, a rabbit can be found on the route (they very much like to carry food and leftovers), boars and some other animals. The predators of a bigger leaf have not been left since the time of the king: the hunting of the bear and the wolf was a very popular entertainment. Do you have any skin in the Raven? Yes, they can be found, but it must be understood that the zone is much less encephalito-threat than, for example, the Leningrad region. If you've decided to vaccinate against the encephalitis before the foot trip to Crimea from the SPB, do it in advance. Revacation for this vaccination is necessary three months after the first vaccine, otherwise there is no interpretation.

I'd probably walk past this trip if it weren't for the straws. It's funny to see the kind of faces like the ones that saw Donbase. The only difference is we didn't show the stews for money and they were guarded by BDM. Although... maybe a few years later, and in Lugan province, they'll take the tour buses and show a straw farm on the former militia base. "There are similarities in Russia to almost all the foreign virtues," they've assured the tour operators before the season. The retaliation of the dummers led the Eiffel Tower in the village of Paris on Ural. It was suggested to see the neighboring village, Varna, Berlin and Leipzig. Lif went to Lama Europe in Chelabin oblast and found out who and how it works on tourism. Farmer Rais Abdulov is already used to all tourists taking pictures of his garage. He's got a graffiti made by Michael Fisher-Art himself, a famous painter from Leipzig. The truth is, Rais also lives in Leipzig, but not in Germany, but in the small village of Warnan district of Chelabin province. The German artist was one of the first foreign tourists to come to the village last year. In memory of himself, he left the Countess not only in the Raisa garage, but also on the wall of the local culture house. This year, the Ministry of Culture of Saxony decided to send 18 archaeologist students to the Ural Leipzig. The travel budget is now in line. - It will take between Euro70 and Euro90,000, counting the German Leipzig and the author of the Urale Laipzig Project Nasur Yurosbaev. - Of these, some 20,000 will go to the construction of a monument called the People ' s Desk in the city of Leipzig. They already laid the foundations. 70 per cent of the costs will be borne by the German side and 30 per cent by the Russian side. But the Rosians don't have to pay the money. It is sufficient to provide German tourists with accommodation and food. In the future, the monument will be a remarkable village and attract new tourists. Indeed, over the past year, the Large Europe of Chelabin oblast is beginning to remind Europe of the real. This is a unique region in southern Chelabin province. Here, in Asia, more than 20 European cities have been named along the border with Kazakhstan. There is, for example, Paris, Berlin, Varna, Fersampenois, Cassel. And they showed up in the middle of the 19th century. General Governor of the Orenburg Region, Vladimir Obruchev, ordered the name of the village in honor of the places where our troops held the most gracious victory.

An alpinist with a world name, an Ossetian by nationality - Kazbek Hamicaev in sports circles is known as the Snow Bars. He is the President of the Federation of Alpineism of the Republic of Northern Ossetia-Alania, the Chairman of the Kazbek Alpine Club and the leader of the Rossia project at the top of the world. Kazbek Borisovich Hamicaev was born on 8 September 1954 in the village of Ahsar (North Ossetia). Alpineism, scalosis and the development of these sporting areas in the Republic of Northern Ossetia took place at 15 years. With the e-mechanical faculty of the North Caucasus Mining and Metallurgical Institute, he began to work as an engineer and organized high-profile trips in free time. It's called a ancestry of alpineism in North Ossetia. It was him who was the first Ossetian alpinist, under which the athletes conquered several mountain peaks. In 1988, a group of Hamicaeva peaked in Korzeniev (7,105 metres), in 1989 at the peak of Lenin (7,134 metres), in 1990 at the peak of Korzeniev (7,105 metres) and the peak of Communism (7,495 metres), in 1992 at the Khan Tengri peak (7,010 metres) and the peak of victory (7,439 metres). In 1995 and 1997, Kazbek Hamicaev, twice in international expeditions, uprooted the highest peak of the world, Everest (8,848 metres). The first summit on Everest was devoted to the 50th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War. At the top of the planet, the flags of Russia, North Ossetia, China, Nepal, the banner of the world and the flag of the USSR were raised. At the same time, during the 1995 Everest rise, Hamicaev had an idea of climbing up on a more difficult road, the centre of the northern mountain wall. He tried his idea two years later. In 1997, a group of alpineists under his leadership managed to pass the most steep and dangerous part of the road, the first scald bastion, and even hung 1, 5 kilometre peril, but suddenly, the stonepat has changed plans. The group went up to Everest on the northern and eastern ridge, but Hamicaev has made a commitment to return to the original route. Today, a well-deserved professional of the physical culture of the North Ossetian ASSR, Kazbek Hamicaev, is the President of the Federation of Alpineism of the Republic of Northern Ossetia, the leader of the Russians on the top of the world. He was Ambassador of the winter Olympics Sochi-2014.

If you've already conquered Carpathians and Crimea, it's time to go to the Caucasus camp. There are other heights waiting for you, and the painting mountains of the mountains are more severe and powerful. However, it doesn't have to be thought that they're only qualified to feed the tracks. The journey to the mountains of the Caucasus is also well carried by the new adventures of the pawning adventures to the Pophod V Gory. It's enough to define the route, pack things in the backpack, build on a wave of positive emotions, not forget the camera, and you can go to the mountains. You don't need special physical training and special skills, because the team always has a trained instructor who chooses the tracks checked and helps to overcome any possible difficulties. There are no special difficulties. Most importantly, there is a need for psychology and internal freedom from civilization. Clean mountain air will fill your lungs and clear your head from the fuss of normal days, contact with one-size-fits-alls, habitat, mountain romance and walks, give you unbearable emotions and memories. Caucasian mountains don't only like the ash adventurers, but also the alpineists. Everyone can find that route to the Caucasus that fits him. The Caucasian Ridge with its deep valleys and sharp ends, the alpine bulbs, the white glaciers and vice waterfalls, the brown mountain rivers can charm you forever. The Caucasian pearls are Elbrous, the highest mountain in Europe attracts extremists. Newspapers and tourists in a good company are more suitable: the Western Caucasus, Cubani, Precaucasia and South Caucasus. Safe Gains in the Western Caucasus are like to be created for tourist groups that include earmarked mountain peaks and newcomers who only wish to open a real adventure by changing recreational activities. The paths here are moderately complex, so perfect for the first meeting with the Caucasus. The mysterious caves, mountain lakes, emerald bulbs and magnificent mountain peaks are rich in the nature of Abkhazia. When you're going to the Kavkas tour guides, you're going to feel the real Caucasian hospitality, all of which are in the Caucasus: air, settlements, even caves and mountain ridges.

Continuing the topic of training newcomers to go to the mountain today, I'd like to talk about this... The experienced tourists have their unwritten laws and regulations, which are always in the way, and they hold what they call " real tourism " . In my groups, I have always been trying, from the very first day, to impress upon new tourists these concepts and to monitor them strictly. Normally, at first, people sometimes have to make it happen, but gradually, everyone gets used to this behavior and they already take it as reasonable. Now, since not all instructors and team leaders are dealing with this issue, I decided to tell you here how to behave in the mountains so that there would be no disrespect for the tourists to hear from them: "The five kettles are going somewhere!" So... In the mountains, meeting people (local residents and tourists) must always be healthy, because it's not just a banal greeting but a health wish that mountains are very relevant. 2. If two groups are on the slope to meet each other, the rule is " Upper Passes Lower " . I mean, a group downwards has to get off the cable and let those up. Ask me why. I answer, yes, because it's always harder for those who get up. 3. One of the basic rules is that " After us must be cleaner than before us " . I don't think there's anything to be cleared up here. It's just that the group, leaving the parking lot, takes away not only its trash, but also the one before them. 4. By leaving the parking lot, the remaining woods are placed vertically under the cedra and, if not, under other thick trees (or are covered by unnecessary polyethylene). After you, other people will come here, and not the fact that they will have weather, time and power to find drywood for the first fire. 5. In the basement (if you come to the head of the group) and remove the backpack and go down to the river to get some water, take a mug or a flask, hire them and bring them to the parking lot. Imagine the feeling of those who crawled over the heat after you, and barely lifting the back of the back of the back of the backpack, could get a cold, delicious water. Besides, the valley usually lasts 10 to 20 minutes, and it's very unreasonably time for everyone to run to the river. In this case, too, it's gonna be pretty good if the river comes straight. ♪ ♪.
