 	We have observed the 8x9 arcmin box of the HETE GRB011212 
(GCN #1194) with the 2-m telescope of peak Terskol observatory  on
2001 December 12.85 UT. Our 4x300s  exposure were centered on coordinates
RA=05h00m05s   Dec = +32o07'39" . 
  The limiting magnitude of the image is Rmag about 21.5.  
 Visual comparison of the images with the DSS reveals   no other obvious
new objects, to a limiting magnitude of roughly R~19.5."

Further observations are planned.
