Bush Glacier and Chuchkhur Notch

Bush Glacier, in the headwaters of Psysh Valley, feeds Sekirtme Creek, the Eastern-most of the sources of Psysh River. The glacier is named after Russian naturalist Dr. Bush, who first described the area in 1903. Straight ahead is 3000m-tall Notch of Chuchkhur (known in Russian as Chuchkhurskaya Schel'), connecting Bush Glacier with Kisgych Valley.
