The manager of the Investment and Development Department of OJSC “Kyrgyz Post,” Rustam Uskenbaev, raised the Kyrgyz Post flag on May 1 at the peak of “Komsomolets,” located at an altitude of 4202 meters above sea level. Rustam had never been involved in mountaineering before. This is the first peak he has conquered.
It is worth noting that the Federation of Mountaineering and Sport Climbing of the Kyrgyz Republic holds an annual mountaineering event in Bishkek starting in May. The event begins with a mass ascent of Komsomol Peak. This year, Rustam Uskenbaev decided to become a member of the Federation.
According to him, the ascent to the summit without preparation was challenging, but it brought him great pleasure and confidence. He further added that he plans to actively participate in mountaineering and raise the Kyrgyz Post flag on even higher peaks.
