Itinerary description
Date : 2023.0.15
Duration on paper : 04h52
Duration real with breaks : 06h16
Difficulty for me : T3+
Physical : very difficult
Technical : very difficult
Fear : average
Average Slope : +15.9% -14.6%
Attendance ascent/summit/descent : null/average/average
Comment : with two more years of experience I managed to do worse than hike 034 which was already pretty dumb (frozen snow and no trail visible) and I brought a friend to suffer with me >< this time the temperature was too hot for the season so the snow was in the process of melting which made the ascent sketchy we were "kind of" safe but snow sliding down under us was a possibility, do not recommend you do this hike in those conditions it was exhausting to progress, another good lesson on the variable nature of snow and how it can make a short hike very difficult.
There are slopes up to 61% it's not an easy ascent at all >< it was too dark in the shade and we were more concerned for our saftey than taking pictures which anyway never manage to show how steep a slope can be.
