Overall
itinerary:
My trip to Central Asia in
2004 included three treks:
1) Aksu
(in Kyrgyzstan),
2) Kichi-Alay (in
Kyrgyzstan),
3) Fann
mountains (in Tajikistan).
During this trip, I also
visited several towns:
Tashkent, Khudjend, Osh, Dushanbe, Penjikent, and Samarkand. Between the last two treks, I
briefly went to Peak
Lenin base camp. For this trip, I used the services of Asia Travel (a company
based in Tashkent). They did an outstanding job despite many politically sensitive
border crossings, lot of bureaucracy, terrible roads, and scarce gasoline.
This map shows the main itinerary of this trip:
Slava
(left), Jackson (center left) and Max (center right) were my guides during this
trip. Dick Mobilio (right) from Saratoga, California, joined me during the Aksu
trek.
