Established route

Peaks with a known line, a known camp sequence, and enough traffic that conditions are reported through the season. Planning starts from information rather than from a satellite image, and the acclimatisation profile is published before you pay.

A mountain is no safer for being well known. The 8,000 m routes in this list are the most serious things we run, and the turn-back criteria are set before the trip rather than argued about on the day.
