>>1083135Personally did the North route twice (first attempt failed due to extreme weather), so I can't really compare to the 'regular' South route, but from hearsay and pictures, I can tell that
>north vs south>2000m summit push vs 1000m summit push>isolated vs crowded>pristine vs full of litter>little accomodation vs comfy>walk all the way vs cable car and snow cats if you wantTl;dr: tough along North route, can be done in a day along South route. Final summit push to East summit and back to camp took me 11 hours, which was several hours faster than average. West summit means another 3 hours. Technically, you qualify if you can walk uphill through snow.
