China to Kyrgyzstan (Irkeshtam / Torugart Pass)
I wish to get from China to Kyrgyzstan. There are two borders : Irkeshtam and Torugart. I got a few quotations from the china guides to drop me off Torugart pass, but as I dig a little bit more information on the internet, a few websites and sources say it's not possible to use Torugart Pass to cross into Kygz.

I sent another email to my tour agent and they assured me that it's ok to pass. That and another tour agent also not flinching when I said I wanted to be dropped off at Torugart.
Has anyone recently use Torugart who can shed some light on this ? I wish to get to Bishkek and using the Irkeshtam will increase the # of days required to get there.
