Ushba in Georgia (4,710 m, 15,450 ft) is one of the most notable peaks of the Caucasus Mountains. It is located in the Svaneti region of Georgia, just south of the border with the Kabardino-Balkaria region of Russia.
Although it does not rank in the 10 highest peaks of the range, Ushba is known as the "Matterhorn of the Caucasus" for its picturesque, spire-shaped double summit. Due to its steep profile and unstable weather[citation needed], Ushba is considered by many climbers as the most difficult ascent in the Caucasus.
I am a IFMGA/UIAGM - KMGA certified mountain guide and in my climbing portfolio are Himalaya in India and Nepal, Karakoram in Pakistan, Patagonia etc.
