After a short scramble, we used this ledge to get to the gully.
PAGE 11: HIDE PAGE 11SHOW/HIDE PIC 1
This is the gully we scrambled up. We gained quite bit of elevation with this gully. If wet, this can be very difficult.

So much smoke, this is not sunrise but the color of sun was like sunrise and the brightness was dim.

We went up here to gain short but wide ridge. Waves of 1.5-3 m high rockbands to scramble.

One of difficult rockbands we came across.

Search for weak spots.

The short ridge ended by another huge rockband. We went left for another side slope walking.

You can see the slope we scrambled up to plateau ahead.

On the plateau, hard work is done.
