The British Garwhal Expedition '81

A 3-man team in association with 3 French and 2 Italian companions, finally attempted the W ridge of Kalanka (6,913m), sister peak to Changabang. Highly unstable snow conditions caused the 3-man climbing party of Nick Kekus, one French and one Italian to turn back 100m or so below the summit.
