Peak Communism
Altitude 7495m, Duration 30 days, Grade 4C (grades)
The highest of the Russian Snow Leopard
Background
Peak Communism (Ismoil Somoni Peak) is the highest mountain in Tajikistan and a cherished dream of any mountaineer being one of the most beautiful and interesting climbs in the world. A mountain that has seen many names: in 1933 Stalin Peak, in 1962 Communism Peak, in 1998 Ismoil Somoni after the ancestor of the Samanid dynasty and finally its modern name Peak Somoni. The ascent starts from a base camp Moskvina Glade (4200m) which can only logically be approached by helicopter. Many climbers attempt Vorobeva peak (5691 m) or Chetyreh peak (6299 m) as part of their acclimatization. Four further camps are placed to reach the impressive small rocky summit with its spectacular panoramic views across the whole Pamirs and into China.
