2nd ascent?

Matt Wells, Larry Derby and I climbed Urkinmang in 1973 from a camp near Tilman's Col via the West Ridge. We had heard that a Japanese party had previously climbed the peak a year or two earlier. We approached the peak from the Langtang Valley and descended by crossing Tilman's Col and walking out past Panch Pokari and on down to the highway. 32 days, no days off!
