Mt. Genyen is way, way remote, very little is known about it and there is no kind of support other then from occasional nomads.Getting there takes days, no roads, lots of nomad trails by foot or horse need to be made. Just to get a look at the mountain is exhausting, not to think of even trying to climb it. They are screwed if they got into trouble on the mountain, there is no way for any kinda help in that part of the world. Very sad story, would be great if a mircle happens and they show up, but doesnt look good.</p>
