They are all top routes, recognized not only in the world of mountaineering but also by the Russian Federation which awarded Bolotov the "Order of Courage" for his ascent of Makalu and the Homeland Service Medal II Grade award for his ascent of Lhotse Middle. in 2001.

While for obvious reasons his mountaineering career began on his "native mountains" such as Chantengri Peak (6995m) and Pobedy Peak (7439m), both in Kyrgyzstan, at the start of the new millennium Bolotov began to exploring the Himalayan peaks with a success rate that has few equals.
