POLISH ROUTE DESCRIPTION
To Climb the Polish Glacier via the Guanacos Valley and traverse the mountain. All climbers who are taking this route the Polish Glacier will need to have previous high altitude experience, and be very familiar using ice axes, crampons, and belaying techniques. Our guides are specialized in the Polish Glacier Route, having successfully guided it many times to our passengers from Europe and USA (see references sections)
The Polish Route will depend on conditions. If a lot of penitentes (snow pinnacles formed by direct sunlight) are encountered in the lower area of the glacier, we will start by climbing through the scree and rock on the right side.
The steeper Polish Glacier Direct Route has been the choice route in recent years. Although steeper, it is safer and easier due to fewer icy and exposed traverses than on the old Polish Route. On this spectacular, steep snow and ice climb we will use several running belays.
In steeper icy sections we will climb pitches instead of using running belays, belaying and regrouping at every anchor. A long day of climbing will take us to the Summit Ridge after the last steep pitch; a 55-60 degree narrow gully with the entire Glacier below at our feet. The final ridge is very long and gentle. After summiting, we descend quickly down to our High Camp to rest and spend the night
