Trip Description

We will climb Sky Pilot via the West Buttress. Taking the gondola up, hiking up Sky Pilot valley, ascending the Stadium Glacier, gain the west ridge, pass pink slab and begin the scramble to the summit. As the plan is to take the first gondola up and catch the last ride back at 6, we will only have approximately 7.5-8 hours. You should expect having a fast pace and be comfortable with 4th class and low 5th scrambling. I will bring a 40 meters rope in case someone need to rappel from pink slab.
