Asan Pamirs
Local fighting and a cholera outbreak added to the hazards that this four man team faced before attempting big-wall climbs from the Asan valley. They succeeded in climbing Yellow Wall (TD) and the W face of Asan (EDl), but withdrew from a new route on Pyramidalny (5,509m), the highest peak in the area, one of the team sustaining a broken arm in an avalanche. He was successfully evacuated by helicopter.
