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.
