Lead climbing, hanging belays, belay placement strategies and rappelling. Return to steep ice for continued intensive skills building in lead climbing, protection strategies, multi-pitch climbing and rappelling. Move to high camp and bivouac. Head up the mountain to one of several technical routes. We locate a protected site and establish our high mountain bivi.
Conditions permitting, attempt a summit climb.
This is a very long and demanding day on a technical route. I would recommend it to anyone who desires an intensive dose of mountaineering information.
