    Wear waterproof shoes, as there is a lot of creeks crossing. The last 3k are uphill, and in spring there is avalanche terrain so maybe you can't reach the pass. This happened to us, the last 48hs were snowing and there w...

    A minor but interesting peak. The peak looks very steep from the south, but from the east it's just a gradual ascent. There is a bit of exposure along the ridge. The approach is very long and dull along the road.
