307:; the largest glaciers of the Northern Tien Shan are concentrated here: the Korzhenevskiy glacier and the Bogatyr glacier. The first is 11 km (6.8 mi) long and has an area of 38 km (15 sq mi). The second is slightly inferior to it: length - 9.1 km (5.7 mi), area - 30.3 km (11.7 sq mi). The glaciers of Shokalsky, Grigoriev, Kassin, Palgov, Kalesnik and others are almost as extensive. The unique Talgar mountain knot is widely known among the country's climbers. For more than 40 years the alpine camp of the union significance "Talgar" has been operating here. In 1979, it was destroyed by a mudflow. In the upper reaches of the Issyk gorge, there are two high-mountain moraine lakes - Ak-Kol (White), which lies at an altitude of 3,140 m (10,300 ft), and Muz-Kol (Ice) at 3,400 m (11,200 ft). Glaciers sparkle dazzlingly - Zharsai, Palgova, Grigoriev, etc. The Talgar section includes three gorges - Left, Right and Middle Talgars. The longest of them - the Left Talgar (more than 30 km; 19 mi) - has, like most others, a direction from south to north. On the southern slope of the Trans-Ili Alatau there are protected gorges of South-Eastern Talgar, Southern Issyk and a number of other smaller gorges (Gubar, Kosbulak, Tamchi). In total, there are 160 glaciers in the reserve (with a total area of 233.7 km; 90.2 sq mi) out of 466 known in the Trans-Ili Alatau. 316:
rivers are Issyk, Left Talgar, Right Talgar and Middle Talgar. In the southern part, the Southeast Talgar (13 km; 8.1 mi), which originates from the Bogatyr glacier, and the South Issyk (10 km; 6.2 mi) flowing into it, flowing from the Korzhenevsky glacier, stand out noticeably. Both rivers are very deep, especially during the warm season. Southeast Talgar and Zhangyryk, merging, give rise to the river. Chilik is the largest in the Northern Tien Shan. Chilik (10 to 12 km; 6.2 to 7.5 mi) runs along the border of the reserve. The rivers are fed mainly by the seasonal melting of snow, firn fields and glaciers. The flood period begins in April and lasts throughout the spring and summer. The water discharge reaches 12 to 15 m/s (39 to 49 ft/s) and more in July - August. On some hot days, as well as after heavy rains, the rivers turn into roaring frenzied streams, destroying the banks and carrying large stones, gravel and sand. In winter, the rivers are shallow, do not freeze, but they form powerful ice on bends and bends, and in narrow places - arched cornices of ice and snow between the banks. There are almost three dozen small (from 0.1 to 3.8 ha; 0.25 to 9.39 acres) alpine moraine and glacial lakes in the reserve. All of them lie in the beds of temporary streams and feed mainly on melt water. These lakes are usually very deep and accumulate significant amounts of water.
