British West face Salcantay (6271m) Expedition
Altering their objective from the W face, this five-man team made the first ascent of the technically difficult and avalanche-risky SW ridge, reaching the lower summit (6,030m) on the fourth day, descending by the E ridge in 1½days. This objectively dangerous route is well illustrated with topos drawn soon after the climb.
