Trip Notes
June, July and August
there are 3 high camps , camp one(5200m),Camp two (6100m), Camp three(6600m)
Muztagh Ata is Most Popular 7000m easiest peak in the world to climb by being Technically not difficult and good for not very competent mountaineers, you can just walk up all the way to the summit, most difficult part is from camp one to camp two that you will take the zig zag track and facing the two crevasses on the way, rest of the way is just a trekking, Other difficulties are bad weather ,thick snow ,some times it snows in high camps very thick like one miter or half deep, it makes it very difficult to walk on that fresh snow even with crampons ,so you need to wait day or two until the snow hard enough to walk on it.
Muztagh Ata is perfect mountain to ski after ascent , you can ski down from summit to the 6000m, then you can not ski from 6000m to 5650m because of zig zag track with crevasse ,from 5650m to 4800m you can ski again.
