Khan Tengri Peak — North Side Expedition (7,010 m)

A classic 7,000-meter ascent in the heart of the Tien Shan

Khan Tengri (7,010 m) is one of the most iconic and technically demanding mountains of Central Asia. Rising as a sharp marble-and-ice pyramid above the North Inylchek Glacier, it is among the northernmost 7,000-meter peaks on the planet and one of the five summits required for the historic USSR Snow Leopard title.
