Traverse
Yep, it is a snow slog, but it does offer some nice views of the surrounding area. We added some diversity to the climb by ascending from the North and descending to the South (left to right). The North side required a little minor route finding in negotiating one of the higher glaciers, but the whole traverse is easily manageable in a half day. The summit offers some nice views and is a mellow mountain for acclimatization.
Climbed with Huw Rees and Sylvia Noorbhai. Just behind us were Llio Elgar, Matt Smith and Vicky Hayes on another rope.

My highest summit
I mean, up to this day... You always hope to go higher, don't you? Ishinca was the target of an unforgettable mountain day, and one of the places where I've felt a better acclimatization. Enjoyable.
