Huadoy Sur, Northeast Face

The beautiful northeast face of Huandoy Sur in Peru's Cordillera Blanca. June 19, 2009. Melting snow has revealed more rocks on the lower third of the face, but it is still climbable. When we attempted it, we crossed the 'schrund to the left of the rock spur that extends through it. We then traversed to the right side of the spur before continuing up moderate mixed climbing to the center of the face. Unfortunately, we had to turn around when my parter fell ill [details spared.]
