The Suatisi Glacier
The Suatisi
glacier is situated on the southern slope of Eastern Caucasus in the
snow-glacial massif of Jimara-Kazbegi. It sources from an altitude of 4450 m
and flows down to 2500 m. The icefall is of 2000 meters and it is more than 6 km
long. Suatisi glacier flows onto the Suatisi gorge. Like other glaciers the Suatisi
glacier flows and therefore there are lots of crevasses of different depths, ice
towers of different height from 5m to 15m and difficulty, which let us enjoy
crevasse and tower climbing.
