In adolescence, we climbed the Picturist Almaty Peak, walked to Lake Issyk-Kul. The most beautiful places, and beyond the Passageway or Lake pass there is a large valley where the very stormy Chonkemin River flows and you can hear the boulders rattling, alas, this is another Republic.Now crossing the border is not possible without customs.
You have to go to the Tourist Peak with an overnight stay. Vehicles are not allowed to pass up from the barrier. The climb is 1500 m. It took 6 hours. After this, there is no strength to ascend. I need a rest. Lifting of medium gravity. Bad luck with the weather. But in general, the beauty is extraordinary, the air. BAO is beautiful
