Hello, I am not very experienced in hiking, I have done it twice in national parks in the USA in summer, sleeping in resorts, but I want to do Issyk-Kul and Ak-Suu by myself in June (probably starting the 5th).

The internet tells me it's both going to be very hot and have snow, so I don't really know which one it is.

I'll bring my own tent and sleeping bag, but could I also buy some in Bishkek? Gas canisters as well? Thanks for the help.

I'll have a dedicated phone for gps, offline maps, a bottle with a filter and some dry food. Hopefully finding warm food along the way in yurts/hostels. I am not sure if I am underpreparing
