"This was an acclimatisation peak, whist trekking to the Goetcha La, - a pass at 16350ft near Kanchenjunga in the Himalayas in Sikkim, India. We had walked along the Singalila Ridge for 7 days, and then set off on the 2nd part of the trek from Yuksom. Here we walked up 2200m in 3 days to Dzongri, where we stayed for 2 nights to acclimatise, before dropping over the Dzongri La and continung up to the Goetcha La. We climbed up Dzongri Top before dawn, in freezing temperatures, to catch the sunrise over Kanchenjunga and the other nearby himalayan peaks, but unfortunately some mist rolled in. However, it later rolled away and we had fine views for the rest of the trek and a superb view of the sunrise over Kanch from the Goetcha La." — davidlong • Oct 21, 2009
