Trekking in the region of the ridge of Peter the great.The valley of the river Muksu.

The Muksu river originates from glaciers Fedchenko and Big Saukdara. This is one of those places that are on the «edge of the world». This year our team was fortunate enough to visit in the area. Our journey started in the village Depar, Rajskogo district and then along the Ridge of Peter the great through the pass, Belcando 3339 m, valley Sugran, pass Irget 1B 4400м (Irgy,Redhead,Roundabout) pass Tamasha 3600m, valley Hadarcha. This route is used by climbers to get to the base camp «Moskvin’s glade» under peak I. Somoni. Because of fresh snow on the passes, we returned back along the trail running along the right Bank of the Muksu river, on the road of the gold seekers. Here it is necessary to add! This way objectively dangerous path of constantly falling stones, sometimes the road disappears in the case of bad weather not passable. Obviously when the earlier, the valley was inhabited along the river Muksu often come across almost vanishing traces of human habitations, bridges, and trails. The area is very beautiful and interesting, but accessible only for well prepared tourists.

This tracking was attended by Maryam Sharipova,Anatoliy Sharipov, Nicolai Nomerotsky, Simon Krylov.

House Gursky. A story with a sad end. In the 80-ies of the last century, the «a» named Nicholas Gursky decided to save humanity or the part coming from the nuclear end of the world new flood and so on. Of divinely Inspired books, he concluded that Sugran is the place where he sailed away on Noah’s ark. He attracted people, especially women with difficult fate. In one of the winters he went to Moscow to write a book, and Sugran left one woman with two boys 6 and 11 years, they had a goat but it ran off. They remained without food. As soon as it became a little warmer, tried to reach out to people, but died during the journey The bodies were discovered by helicopter pilots flying over the pass Belcando. The story of the community «New ark» ended.

Северные отроги Хребта Петра I. Долина реки Муксу. Сентябрь 2017 года.

Река Муксу берёт своё начало из ледников Федченко и Большой Саукдара. Это одно из тех мест которые находятся на «краю света». В этом году нашей команде посчастливилось вновь побывать в этом районе. Наш путь начался в кишлаке Депшар Лахшкого района и далее вдоль Хребта Петра Первого через  перевал Белькандоу  3339 м, долина Сугран, перевал Иргет 1Б 4400м (Иргай,Рыжий,Обходной) перевал Тамаша 3600м, долина Хадырша. Этот маршрут используют альпинисты для того чтобы попасть в базовый лагерь «Поляна Москвина» под пиком И.Сомони.По причине свежего снега на перевалах, возвращались обратно мы по тропе идущей по правому берегу реки Муксу, по дороге золото-мойщиков. Здесь обязательно надо добавить! Этот путь объективно опасен, тропа постоянно пробивается камнями, местами исчезает  и в случае плохой погоды не проходима. Одним словом не советуем. Очевидно  когда то раньше, долина была населена, вдоль реки Муксу часто попадаются почти исчезающие следы человеческого жилья, мостов и троп. Район очень красив и интересен, но доступен только для хорошо подготовленных туристов.

В поход ходили Шарипова М.рук. Номероцкий Н. Крылов С. Шарипов А.

Дополнение к снимкам 27 и 31 Домик Гурского.

Домик Гурского. История с грустным концом. В 80-х годах прошлого века, «некий» по имени Николай Гурский решил спасти человечество или часть от грядущего ядерного конца света нового потопа и тд. Из Боговдохновенных книг  он сделал вывод что Сугран именно то место откуда когдато отчалил Ноев ковчег. К нему потянулись люди, особенно женщины с трудной судьбой. В одну из зим он уехал в Москву писать книгу, а на Сугране осталась одна такая женщина с двумя мальчиками 6 и 11 лет, у них была коза но она сбежала. Остались они без продуктов. Как только стало чуть теплее, попытались выйти к людям. Но сил не хватило и они погибли в пути. Трупы обнаружили вертолётчики пролетая над перевалом Белькандоу. На этом история общины «Новый ковчег» закончилась.
