Description
Blue Mountain - one of the highest mountain peaks of the Blue Mountains ridge. The mountain is surrounded and partially covered by forest, at the top are picturesque and bizarre rock outcrops. The nearest cliffs to the village of Sinegorsky are located at the Siniyaya Gora pass (on the old Serebryansky tract) - the Stolb and Kamennye Vorota cliffs, and somewhat to the south - the Korablik rock. Rock Column is almost vertical on all sides, sometimes with cracks. The largest of the rocks, located at the very top of the mountain, is called the Ship. The rock got its name for its characteristic shape resembling the bow of a ship. The forest in the area of the mountain is mixed, it consists mainly of firs, pines and birches, and cedars are also rare. From the top there is a view of the village of Sinegorsky , and in the distance, behind the mountain range, the factory pipes of Nizhny Tagil are visible [1] .
