Name
[edit ]The name Tebulosmta shares a common origin and association with the highland Chechen village of Tebula, which is in proximity to the peak.[2] [3]
Ski descent
[edit ]The first ski descent of Tebulosmta was completed in May 2025 by an international team of skiers from Chamonix-Mont-Blanc including Tom Grant, Aaron Rolph and Bine Žalohar. They accessed the mountain self-supported from the Georgian village of Khonischala, before climbing and skiing the northwest face.[4] [better source needed ]
