8th July to 10th July – (Pune to Delhi) the team is packed and ready to embark on this adventure. Morale is high and all of us are eager to get going. We are travelling to Delhi by train.
11th to 13th July – (Delhi to Leh) we intend to travel from Delhi to Leh via Manali and Keylong. After we arrive at Leh, we will have a stopover for 2 days; during which we will purchase and round up all the necessary supplies. This will be the only time we will have to pack all basic necessities / amenities for most of the rest of the climb, until we are back from base camp. Packing is most important and only the most essential should be packed. We don’t want to be searching for something vital in an emergency.
14th to 18th July – (Leh to Kargil) we plan to reach Kargil on the 14th. Kargil to Tangol on the 15th. We will set up Interim Camp after Tangol. All supplies will be shifted from the Interim Camp to the Base Camp on 18th. The whole team will be involved with this.

19th to 31st July – (Base Camp – Camp 01 – Camp 02 – Camp 03) this will be the period where we will split into three teams and hike to our destination. Progress will be excruciatingly slow and filled with uncertainties. Everything depends on the weather and wind conditions. All the three teams need time to acclimatize to the threatening and harsh conditions. Along the way we will set up camps for rest. These will also prove useful as a fallback during rough weather or other extremities.
1st to 3rd August – We will split into four teams here. This will be the time when each team will make a first attempt to the summit. This exercise will provide valuable experience for any exigencies we may have to face during subsequent summit attempts.
4th to 7th August – One team after the other will make their attempt to the summit. The crowning moment. We know we will achieve it. While one team is attempting to reach the summit, the other teams will stand by for any support.
7th to 10th August – will be the time to get back to base camp via all the other camps and clearing up after us.
8th to 9th August – these will be dedicated to rest the whole team.
10th to 14th August – we take the same route back home. Expecting to arrive back in Pune on the 14th.

Is this a proper mountaineering attempt or more of an advanced trek?
