Description

Our original objectives in the Jiptik Valley remain unclimbed and there is plenty of potential for first ascents in the valley. The Jiptik range saw little climbing during the Soviet era - a handful of easy routes were climbed. After the collapse of the USSR, the range remained untouched until 1996 when Paul Hersey traveled to the Jiptik valley and climbed Kyzyl Muz (5,127m), Muz-Tash (5040 m), Pik 4900 m, and Pik 4720 m. In 2009 Hersey returned to Jiptik with Graham Zimmerman and Yewjin Tan. The group climbed a new route on the north face of Kyzyl Muz and identified the north face of Muz-Tok (5,066m) as an excellent unclimbed objective (AAJ 2009). Muz-Tok has been climbed once (during the Soviet era) via the southwest ridge. Hersey et al. left stating that “the Jiptik holds many excellent possibilities for technical first ascents, generally on steep ice.
