at 83.01”ćE and 36. 20”ćN, in the North area of the main ranges
of Kun Lun Mountains, Mt. Uzatagh, not very high peak,, is covered
by snow for all season. It is located in the south, only 50 kilometers
towards the Yeyik village. The glacier at the foot of Mt Uzatagh
looks as if something mancarv-ed: some looks like huge high crystal
buildings, some looks like great palace, some looks like beautiful
glass Kingdom what you only can expected in your dream. And there
are more than tens of wild animals in this virgin area. You will
have many chances to see a lot of wild animals when you trek up:
Tibetan Antelope, Asiatic wild ass, wild ox and wild yarks, snow
leopard, lynx, Asiatic black bears, white fox, red fox, Maco Polo
Sheep, wolf, etc. Mt Uzatagh is still one of only a few virgin
peaks left in the worlds because this areas has just be opened
to the outside world in the last year. So we have not enough information
how this peak looks like. We are expecting you to go there to
make some First-Hand information for all the world. There are
also four other virgin peaks over 6000 meters between Mt Muz Tag
(west of Mt Uzatagh) and Mt Uzatagh.
 En
route, you will have many choices to enter into China. Because
of the political situation in the recent years, the easy way and
the safety way is: enter into China from the Tuogart Pass on the
border of China and Kyrgyzstan via Bishkek, then drive further
down to Kashgar. After short staying in Kashgar, leave for Khotan
via main towns of Yarkand and Kaglik, which used to be main station
on the ancient Silk Road and Marco Polo Route. As you know, Khotan,
located in the south edge of Taklamakan desert, was one of the
most important town where Sven-Hedin and Stein worked. The fabric
studio has been still kept in the old family style. A lot of ancient
sites and ruins are surrounded this old town, for instan-ce, Rawak,
Mailikwat, Shumpla, Dan Dan Wulik, Karaton, etc. Well, after one
day sightseeing in Khotan, you should have to keep your journey
by bus toward east until arriving at Menfeng, where used to be
Niya. After your breakfast in your hotel in Niya, you should have
to switch your bus into jeeps and start your real adventures towards
the South. In the late afternoon, you finally arrive at the last
village Yeyik on your way to Mt Uzatagh (6250), where is Yeyik
village. This is the place where we prepare animals for carrying
your equipment and food for using in when you trekking. This is
your first day starting your camping life in this mountain. My
experiences let me know that it takes at least one whole day to
get all the animals ready even we will have made the reservation
in advan-ce. So, why not to take this opportunity to do some visiting
in this small mountain village ? Then when everything will have
been done by a long negotiation with local villagers, you will
start your trekking on next day. Mt. Uzatagh, not very high peak,,
is covered by snow for all season. It is located in the south,
only 50 kilometers towards the Yeyik village. The glacier at the
foot of Mt Uzatagh looks as if something man-carved: some looks
like huge high crystal build-ings, some looks like great palace,
some looks like beautiful glass Kingdom what you only can expected
in your dream. And there are more than tens of wilder animals
in this virgin area. I am sure you will have many chances on your
way to see a lot of wilder animals: Tibetan Antelope, Asiatic
wild ass, wild ox and wild yarks, snow leopard, lynx, Asiatic
black bears, white fox, red fox, Maco Polo Sheep, wolf, etc. It
takes you 5 days to reach at the glacier, another 5 days for exploring
around this peak. Then it takes you 6 days further towards west
and take an other valley to go back to Yeyik village. When you
say Good Bye to your animal drivers, leave for the mail road and
when you reach at the main road, you should switch your jeeps
into a big bus and keep your journey towards north and enter into
the famous Taklamakan Desert. It is a great pity if you miss one
night camping in the middle of this biggest desert because this
is a beautiful desert, in where you should not miss your enjoyable
time to see these golden color sand mountains and dunes, a clean
and beautiful sky in a quiet dark night ” Then from the next
day on, you will meet the state road 312 and keep your moving
until your arrival of Urumqi, the capital of China Xinjiang Uygur
Autonomous Region. After your last sightseeing to the Heavenly
Lake, you will take your flight XO711 to fly to Almaty to catch
up your flight home. I am sure my partner, ITMC Tien Shan, one
of the best and biggest travel agency in Kyrgizstan will take
a good care of you when you arrive at Almaty. Here is the communication
