The Greatest Climb

The North Ridge of Lei Tocquan
The North Ridge of Lei Tocquan has been attempted when you guys went in there. Was it already an objective for alpinism? I'm pretty sure not. The climb is roughly 2,500 or so meters, 8,000 feet.

If you stay on the ridge itself, the objective hazards are not terribly bad unless it gets really warm and the corners start collapsing.
