First big expedition
This trip had it all: crevasse falls, big blizz, group drama.

Ascent Note
Great route! We didn't get to top out, unfortunately. Climbing from about 15,500 to 17,500 was really fun, great view. Got weathered off at the foot of the Orient Express and had to downclimb back to the 14 camp. Maybe next time.

Ascent Note
Most dangerous section is the Valley of Death approach, with those house-eating covered crevasses. Moderate and safe from there on up.
