Defeat - seracs from hell


The first hour was fairly easy on the glacier, apart from an icy section where I slipped and bruised my fingers. Time to sharpen the crampons I think? The glacier went more difficult and suddenly there was no more way to go. Spent 90 min path finding but the easiest way would have required 2 ice axes and small backpack. Descended some for the night - this route is quite hard at the moment. We need to climb something else.
