Like the day before, we encountered very frequent weather changes and low visibility. This route featured major patches of old snow and fresh snow cover from around 2700m upwards. We managed to make around 2/3 of the route as well as the summit before it started raining/snowing again. Again, no major technical challenges in this summit, but the weather conditions added some strain. About 5 hrs into we ran into the first other person. 5/5 would do again!

Cool. Weiterer 3000er. Glückwunsch mein einziger Follower. Ich habe mich noch nicht in den Schnee oder auf Gletscher getraut.
