I'm away leading an expedition to Carstensz Pyramid in August. This, the most mysterious of the 7 Summits, lies nestled deep in the Indonasian jungle and offers a significant logistical challenge just to reach its base. Summit day gives plenty of easy climbing on sharp limestone and the infamous Tyrolean traverse before the usual afternoon torrential downpour!
There are several political and cultural anomalies that make Carstensz Pyramid one of the most dangerous summits in my opinion. I have joined Carstensz Pyramid Expedition, one of Adventure Indonesia Expeditions monthly departure and its a memorable trip of my life.
