Sickle Moon Peak or Bharanzar Peak () is located in the Kishtwar Himalaya and is the highest summit of the range. It lies in the eastern Himalayan range, and is north of Brammah massis in Kishtwar, 55 kilometers east of Kishtwar town and 195 kilometers east of Srinagar, the state capital of Jammu and Kashmir. The Brammah massif lies south of Sickle Moon and is separated by a 12 kilometer glacier. The nearest Peaks are Brahma I , Flat Top , Brahma II , and Arjuna , listed in order from west to east.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mountain expeditions )〕 ==Mountaineering== The east Kishtwar range of Brahma massif was first assessed by an Australian team in 1939.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Peak baggers guide to the eastern Kishtwar )〕 The eastern approaches of this Peak were explored by Fritz Kolb and his friends, the two Austrian mountaineers in 1947,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kishtwar )〕 from its base at Machail and climbed two small peeks. After a period of closure, the area was again open to foreigners in the early seventies, and there was a rush to climb the obvious plums in the western region. In 1973 British mountaineers Nick Escourt and Chris Bonington made an ascent of Brammah I (6416 m) and two years later in 1975 a team of Indian High Altitude Warfare School (HAWS) led by Lt. Col. D. N. Tankha made the first ascent of this Peak.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Expeditions 1973-1975 )〕 The massif is accessed by 145 kilometers by road from Srinagar up to Kishtwar town and then 50 kilometers alpine track leads to the base of the summit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sickle Moon Peak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
