Adaj-Hoh, Mountain summit in North Ossetia, Russia
The Adaj-Hoh mountain reaches an elevation of 4,408 meters and features extensive snow fields and glaciers on its northern and eastern slopes.
Hungarian mountaineer Moritz Dechy completed the first documented ascent of Adaj-Hoh in 1884, marking a milestone in Caucasus mountain exploration.
According to Ossetian mythology, the mountain summit serves as the dwelling place of Afsati, the patron deity of wild animals and hunting.
Climbers attempting to reach Adaj-Hoh summit need to pass through the Tsey Glacier region and navigate challenging technical sections requiring specialized equipment.
The mountain stands at the intersection of the Main Caucasus Range and Kassar Gorge, creating distinct microclimates on different faces of the peak.
