A little about the objective.

Hungchi is a peak a little over 7000m situated in the Upper Khumbu region of Nepal, south of the Nepalese - Tibetan border a few miles from Gokyo and close to the well known peak of Cho Oyo.

The mountain has only had two prior ascents, both via the South West Ridge (the ridge line on the right of the photo) which is the chosen objective for the trip.

Approximate time on the mountain will be 10 days, so hopefully a good weather window!
