Visual tables and graphs are presented showing the negative state of sport climbing in Kazakhstan today. Key external factors influencing the development of Kazakhstani rock climbing are highlighted. The continuity of the country's general political system was demonstrated in the choice of the leadership of the Federation of Rock Climbing and Mountaineering.
