Route Notes Tried to go to top from C2 but 200m above stopped because night's wind had made windslabs so too dangerous to go on because avalanche menace, plus meter deep snow and continued strong wind. Fixed rope on high half between BC and C1 and all route, to C2 for safe descent and one technical problem was 2 rock steps just below C1 between C1 and C2 (5m high each one and vertical).
