07/41 - British Sikkim 2007
Roger Payne with Dr Julie-Ann Clyma (October-November 2007)
Persistence eventually paid off for this pair, at last permission being received to climb in North Sikkim - although not on Gurodongmar, at 6715m the highest peak in the area and the hoped-for objective. However, they were able to explore two glaciers, and climb Brumkhangshe South (c5635m) & Brumkhangshe North (c5450m) and make the first ascent of Eagle Peak (c5540m), plus the second ascent of Pheling c5500m) and two other sub-6000m peaks, as well as check out a number of routes on Chombu (6362m)
