I forced down a granola bar, giving me a total of 500 calories or so over the past 48 hours. I knew that I would need energy to make it to the summit.<\/p>\n<p>I was going slow the whole day since my energy levels felt quite drained. After an hour or so Vicky and Fernando caught up to us, a Spanish couple who we had been friendly with at camp. We all went up together. At the glacier Alex joined Vicky and Fernando&#8217;s rope, while I went solo since there was little danger of cravasses across the path of travel.<\/p>\n<p>We eventually summited and promptly headed down. We met Skyler, the VOCer who was on his way up to Ranrapalca &#8211; a highly technical mixed climb, requiring rock protection as well as ice protection.
