Gondogoro La Trek

The Gondogoro La, though popular with trekkers.
The pass can be attempted as early as the last three or four days in june. By august, objective dangers from crevasses, avalanche and rock fall increase substantially as the snow cover begins to melt.
However, the pass is very steep and crossing it requires the use of fixed ropes to ascend and descend. So, in a way, this is beyond conventional trekking.
