After you've climbed Sheep Meadows to 2000m, climb some more. It will feel great.
There is a plethora of trail intersecting and zipping everywhere. Go with a local or a guide that will feign confidence.
This trail does do what the elevation profile shows. It dumps hard at the end and is a real brake burner. Best if charged with 10 bros.

Remoteness adds to difficulty. Not a hard trail, but the elevation and the lack of traffic ups it a notch.
Good cell service in places with line of sight to a tower.

reporter Great condition, just keep it on the trail as it is fragile alpine. Moon dust and lichen.
