Mount Elbrus

£9.95

Shows the ascent to the summit from the upper Baksan Valley and surrounding area. Detailed topographic information; glaciers, wooded areas, moraine and scree and scub are all marked and the map is contoured at 50m intervals. Paths, mountain routes, ski-tour routes and heli-skitour routes are clearly shown and so are mountain rescue posts, alpine camps and tourist bases. On the reverse there is background information about the region, black and white photographs showing summit heights and lists of the main summit and pass routes including the grade (1B, 2A, 3B, etc) and a summary of the terrain covered (rock, ice, snow or mixed).
