LAILA PEAK EXPEDITION

Challenging
3–4 weeks
6,096 m

TRIP OVERVIEW

Laila Peak's impossibly elegant north-west face is one of the most photographed shapes in the Karakoram, and the 45–60 degree face has become a famous ski descent.

The approach runs from Hushe up the Gondogoro Glacier, with base camp on the moraine below the face.

Suitable for climbers comfortable on sustained steep snow and ice.
