"2:40:18 to the top. 800m of ascent in total. walking.
very windy, cold, ice towards the top, Just about passible, but I should have taken crampons. some people turned back.
As I descended I saw a young man on his way up, walking with his hands in his pockets, in an inappropriate light weight jacket, no backpack, on hat, and waring carpet slippers.
