Itinerary description
I was preparing for this for almost two years, I've been previously on this mountain a few times by different routes, and it's still very dangerous to go there in winter especially alone (do not recommend it any time).
It was hard to catch the weather window, and it was quite short, so I was supposed to be fast even though there was a lot of snow from the very beginning.
On the way up I lost my way a bit you can see it on the track, so it's better to follow the route back, it's more straightforward.
