Mountain Winds

Well .... we planned to reach summit but the it was too cold - 10 degrees Celsius and the wind was blowing with 70-80 km/h.As you can see the west ridge was blown really bad. We stopped close to the first step because of a small avalanche and going on the other route looked impossible because of the hard frozen ice. The sun appearance made us push a little bit further but... it was wiser to go back. Maybe another time...at least we're alive so we can try!
