9:00-9:30 Hearty breakfast on the banks of the Kosyu River (according to the menu).
If the weather is suitable for climbing, the group gathers for a one—day hike in the mountains.
The Circumpolar Urals are characterized by an unpredictable climate. If the day starts on a fine morning and grace pours from the sky — golden, hot, and the crystal of the river rings merrily on the rifts, then the tour participants are preparing for a trip to the mountains.
9:00 a.m. For the main part of the group, there is a radial exit towards Mount Manaraga with an ascent to the Studentsky Pass.
Traveling in the mountains, you can take breathtaking pictures of mountain landscapes that will attract and inspire. The participants of the trip can see this for themselves by studying the pictures of the mountain landscapes of the planned route.
There are many climbing routes at the foot of Manaragi, among which there are options suitable for beginners, in summer, some of them do not require special equipment.
But there are quite difficult ones — well-trained climbers will be able to master them.
During the trip, a radial one-day exit to the Manaraga from the west side to the mane of the spur of the main mountain is recommended. The height of the Manaragi is 1,663 meters, the shape of the mountain is a strongly dissected ridge with 7 large peaks, teeth and teeth "gendarmes".
Hiking on steep rocky slopes in dry weather is not easy, and in the rain the lichen gets wet and becomes worse than soap, so traveling for the purpose of climbing mountains is possible only with suitable weather.
To move around the mountain kurums, you need special trekking shoes, a hiking raincoat in case of rain or thunderstorms, as well as a windproof windbreaker and trousers made of windproof material "wind stopper".
The ascent and descent are quite steep, the legs get very tired. For descent, it is additionally recommended to have trekking poles to maintain balance when moving through a pile of stone placers and boulders.

Those who want to relax and enjoy the nature of the Circumpolar Urals without radial exits stay at the shelter throughout the day and rest permanently in the valley of the mountain river and enjoy the surrounding views.
There are almost no mosquitoes here, crystal clear water nearby, small bushes and dried grass, which is quite enough for a bonfire for dinner. The sharp slightly snowy peaks of the mountains, the green carpet of the forest tundra, the sonorous and nimble flow of the Manaragi and Kosyu rivers. And the bright blue sky.
Evening time. Arrival of the main group at the Manaraga Shelter, rest from the tedious transition, individual cases, charging batteries for photo/video equipment.

Having climbed the ridge opposite from the Bear's Paw, on a sunny day you will see a snow-gray Manaraga, dazzlingly beautiful and at the same time sinister, like any too beautiful woman.
The views to the west are beautiful, where the Belfry Mountain massif is located.
When there is no sun, when clouds press down on the mountains and a crazy wind prowls through the mountains and taiga, immeasurable sadness falls on the earth, and the mountains and forest around us become even more severe.
The duration of the radial access to the mountains is from 6 to 9 km in one direction.

Rafting on packraft is a pleasure.
In the upper reaches, the Manaraga is very wayward: narrow, steeply inclined, with a lot of stones in the riverbed, with sharp turns — a real mountain river.
The distance from the Deer Creek to the Kosyu River is a dangerous section of the Manaragi River, 6 km of rafting along the Manaragi, these are complex 3X shivers with the main decoration — the 5X Deer Threshold, stretching for half a kilometer.

They are bordered by a mixed forest, which gives the area an exceptionally picturesque appearance.
There are a lot of fish in the lakes: large perch, fatty pelage and pike.
With a neoprene suit, snorkeling and underwater video equipment, those who want to make unique shots of rare fish can use their free time to explore lakes for mountain ichthyofauna.

In addition, fans of mineralogy can collect a collection of minerals and semi-precious stones.
There are very rich deposits of rock crystal, garnets, hematites and other semi-precious stones in the Circumpolar Urals.
To the east of the lakes, through the pass, there are the Mankhobe Glacier, the Aleshkov ranges, the Pyramid and the Khobe-yu River with mountain trout lakes and Death Valley, infamous for the glacier that descended from huge boulders in ancient times.

Rafting begins from the mouth of the Moraine creek or from the threshold of the "Track" and continues 5-8 km along the Kosyu River, flowing at the foot of the xp. Bear's paw on the picturesque threshold of the "Pipe" with surprisingly clear transparent cold water.

A canyon of 10 km begins from the threshold, at the exit of which there is a rock-rock — "Bezgil".
