Great route, even greater company
Climbed with Alex Trubachev. If it wasn't for the objective danger of rockfall, this route would be fabulous (it's a very nice route even with the rockfall). At the end of the descent (as is usually the case when our guards are down), I fell into a crevasse as the snowbridge that I was crossing on collapsed. Fortunately, I managed to hold on to the lip of the crevasse with my ice tool and Alex, who had crossed already, pulled me out. Of course, we were unroped. After all, the technical difficulties were over, this was the easy glacier walk part...
