Peak Otechestvennoi Voiny (Peak of the Great Patriotic War, 4,050 m) \u2014 commonly abbreviated VOV \u2014 is one of the more remote four-thousanders in the Tuyuk-Su cirque. Your RU article describes the ascent via the north ridge (1B), emphasising the peak’s defining characteristic: a very long approach for a 1B route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As your own article on Khrishatogo<\/a> notes: “Khrishatogo 1B and VOV 1B are both category 1B, but the approach to the first takes 3\u20134 hours while the approach to the second takes 6\u20137 hours \u2014 and that’s before the technical section.” VOV rewards those willing to walk further than the crowds. The summit sits deep in the cirque, near the Tuyuk-Su glacier and Ordzhonikidze (4,410 m), and the view from its north ridge takes in virtually the entire chain of Tuyuk-Su peaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The name honours the Soviet Union’s Great Patriotic War (1941\u20131945) \u2014 part of the tradition of naming Tuyuk-Su peaks after Soviet-era themes (Pioneer, Komsomol, Oktyabrenok, VOV).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
