Thank you mr stefan

After a short night in the hut, the actual ascent begins here

... to descend. My tour partner had up to 4800 m no problems. After that until 5400 m he said that it is extremely exhausting. The guy (24) comes from Garmisch and otherwise has no problems on the mountain. We are both well trained, but the altitude and wind are just as important. It runs very steeply over loose gravel and dust. The wind is very strong, freezing and blowing dust in the eyes and respiratory system. Despite gloves, individual fingers were slightly numb. The summit climb partly crosses snow / ice fields, crampons were not necessary with us. Passing a fake peak, it's time for the last Hm. The sulfur fumes are in our opinion not as bad as the flying dust. Striking tour, if you are not used to this altitude.

Thanks, the previous tips I can all confirm (21:06:17), with the starting point A (Base Camp) is a curve earlier. We were traveling with two of us, without guides and camped the first night at 3200 m, so 200 Hm higher up. Small stone walls provide cover there and the sandy bottom protects the back. Shortly after 3700 m there is a small plateau for a tent (max 3-4 persons). The nights in June are pretty cold. Even during the day, the winds are very strong. The second night we spent in the shelter (4200). It is advisable to do a short acclimatization tour in the afternoon. A guide told us not to climb another 300-400 Hm, stay upstairs for an hour and then back to 4200 to sleep. Personally, I had a lot of height problems. The headaches (pretty bad) were gone after the small acclimatization tour. However, then nausea and vomiting plagued me. I decided the next day, again from ...
