Burchula

Burchula (Georgian: ბურჭულა) or Karaugom (Ossetian: Къæрæугомы хох Qæræwgomy xox) is a peak in the Greater Caucasus Mountain Range, located in the Oni District of Georgia. The elevation of the mountain is 4,364.5 metres (14,319 ft) above sea level. The peak is mainly made up of pre-Cambrian granites. Burchula is covered by ice and glaciers at higher elevations while the lower part of the mountain consists of steep and jagged cliffs. The glacier Notsarula descends from the mountain's western flank and is the source of the Notsarula River (left tributary of the Rioni). The Bokho Glacier descends from Burchula's southeastern flank.
