Patundas Medow

Duration :	13 days trip, 3 walking days
Max Height Gained :	4100m
Grade :	Moderate, Technical
Season :	June - September

Brief Description

This is a short technical trek to the ridge between the Passu and Butara glaciers called Patundas meadows which has sweeping mountain views in all direction, but there’s a tricky glacier crossing en route. Patundas, on the ridge between the Passu and Butara glaciers, is a summer pasture used by Ghulkin villagers with cluster of huts and livestock pens. The views from Patundas are spectacular in all directions. The rapid elevation gain of 1700m makes pervious acclimatization necessary , which can be done with combining this with a trek in the surrounding areas.
