Sounds like a vicious mountain indeed!
She is!
We did the traverse in Jan 2008. Got stopped by 80 winds at White Rocks (19,800 ft). We aborted summit and 20 mintues later is when I fell and broke my leg. Had to hike down to base camp (5,000 ft vertical). I has helivaced out with a man with HAPE.
One day I will go back and try again but that mountain has some wicked weather.
