Dykh Tau- in the Caucasus of Russia - the second highest mountain in Europe

Dykh Tau ( 5205m, 17,077ft ) - in the Caucasus of Russia
- the second highest mountain in Europe and one of the "Seven Second Summits"
( the second highest mountains of the seven continents )

There is no easy ascent route.
Dykh Tau is notorious for its technical difficulty and frequent avalanches.

( Note: An ascent of the " Seven Second Summits " is considered more difficult
than an ascent of the " Seven Summits " - the highest mountains of the seven continents.
