Очень классный поход с невероятно живописными видами и безумно красивым лесом! Подъём действительно тяжёлый и местами кажется бесконечным. В какой-то момент начинаешь думать, что гора вообще никогда не закончится и до вершины ты так и не дойдёшь (это са…
Отличный поход. Вид уже с перевала Терешковой офигенный. А на пике и вовсе не надо выбирать между понорамой на город или на снежные вершины, так как будут оба варианта😍. А перевалы Трапеция низкая и высокая теперь самые любимые, будто в дюнах. Спасибо Ай…
Очень повезло сегодня с погодой. Было солнечно и мы сходили на обе вершины БАП. Вернулись до темноты. Сложный поход, но благодаря Айдыну, всё прошло максимально комфортно и безопасно!
