The “classical tour” Belukha ascending means passing over the mountain range Delone - is not regarded as technically complicated. According to classification it corresponds category 3A. For the freshmen and beginners it is rather serious test. There are two key spots on the route: mountain range Delone (3400 m) and Belukha range (4200 m.) they demand from the participants certain experience and technical skills - ability to put into practice accidents insurance and self insurance, to move along the rope railing , to move on the snow covered slope in “common time”.
But don’t be scared by this special terminology. During the passages and special training we will help you to acquire this minimum of skills necessary for Belukha ascending. But along with all theses, successful ascending depends considerably on the weather conditions. Which means - listen carefully the opinion of guides concerning, weather conditions.
One of the most important moments of ascending the Belukha (4506 m) is the regular acclimatization. The best variety is tracking to Belukha foothills over the range Kara - Turek (3080 m). The preliminary acclimatization would not be out of place - regular trips to the mountains during a year and spending time outdoors at an altitude from 1800 to 4000 meters. As additional physical training the following sports can be recommended: jogging, swimming, skies, bicycle, yoga, long walks (with ski sticks) mountain skies and snowboard, in the combination with aerobic. In everyday life avoid using lift! Remember, walking upstairs is one of the best method for ascending training.
As for the technical training - we recommend to visit rock - climbing and ice - climbing lessons, where you can get general understanding about practice of accidents insurance and self insurance, to acquire experience of using personal climber’s outfit and technique of movement on rocks and ice - snow plots. It is great if you have experience of ascending. But it should be kept in mind that in every mountain country there are its own particular qualities and every summit has its own individual characteristics also. That’s why the ascending Elbrus (5642 m) cannot be placed on the same footing as ascending Belukha (4506 m). We warn you against the rather spread snobbism, which sometimes creates an obstacle in the way of real evaluating of personal strength and abilities. Avoid unfounded confidence! Big attention is being paid to the safety. Our guides are real professionals they have high climber grades and are experienced instructors - methodologist on Alpinism. As for insurance of participants it is arranged on the program of insurance company “Ingosstrah - Barnaul”, which covers the medical expenditures and expenses in the case of accidents, and also rescue - searching works with the usage of MChS helicopters. During the ascending our team has permanent communication with the base camp and with MChS camp on Ak-Kem. Don`t worry! The rescue teams are always ready to help. Medical first - aid set corresponds all the necessary demands of climbers’ activities.
