Большая Кольтайга, Mountain summit in Khakassia Republic, Russia
The Bolshaya Koltayga mountain reaches a height of 1,856 meters and forms part of the Abakan mountain range in southern Siberia.
The mountain served as a traditional hunting ground for indigenous peoples who tracked animals through its dense coniferous forests for generations.
Local legends tell of four sisters whose tears formed lakes at the mountain base, transforming grief into natural landmarks that remain today.
The northern slope contains the source of the Bolshoi Tashtip River and features paths leading through dark coniferous taiga forests.
The mountain's four distinct peaks form a horseshoe shape, with each summit corresponding to ancient warriors in regional folklore.
