The route begins at base camp with a short walk along the moraine that leads to the icefall.  The icefall is a glacier that is heavy with large seracs and crevasses. The icefall is fixed and maintained with rope and ladders all the way to Camp I. From Camp I to Camp II the terrain is gradual with a few crevasses. From here the air is much thinner as we make our way up the Lhotse face with mixed snow and ice to Camp III.  From Camp III to the South Col the climbing is on easy to moderate mixed snow and rock leading to the South Col- Camp IV.  Summit day starts around 11:00pm the same day up fixed ropes on mixed snow and rock to the south summit, then a short traverse to the Hillary step then all up here to the summit arriving around 9:00am. The decent from the summit to the South Col takes 3-5 hours.
