| Climbed with David Greenhouse during our accimatization period in the Quilcayhuanca Valley. Easy route, but with a misleadingly long approach over slabs and scree. I felt really bad on the climb, which was probably due to a pre-existing intestinal illness that became apparent on our return from the summit. After resting for 2 days in base camp, we hiked up to moraine camp for San Juan, but descended the following day, since we could find no way to pass the ice cliff low on the route and were thus unable to access the NW ridge. |
