How was the overall climb?
It was a lot of fun. Once you get to the hut, you spend a day to acclimatize, we then carried a load to the High camp at 15,200 and returned to the hut for the night. Next we moved back to High camp and made our summit bid starting at 2:00AM in cold nd windy conditions. The only real challenge is finding the route in the lower section below the Jampa Glacier known as the labyrinth. This section ungulates quite a bit and is rocky. It can be challenging in the dark if you have never been there. I would suggest taking a day climb part way through the area before you summit night if you are not with an experienced party. Once on the glacier at 16,300′, it starts off at a low angle then gets steeper as you gain altitude. We were roped up and made steady progress with few stops along the way.
