What you bring versus what we supply
Operating safely in the High Altai requires rigorous personal preparation paired with heavy-duty expedition support. You bring your own weather-hardened boots, technical shell layers, and cold-weather sleeping bag rated for sub-zero alpine nights.
Our team provides everything else: sure-footed Mongolian horses, veteran pack handlers, Russian UAZ support vehicles, satellite communication links, heavy mess tents, and camp cooks preparing high-calorie field meals daily.
