- Passismta ascent via the Southern spur of the Southeast ridge (combined route,
category 1B difficulty, fig. 5, 6). At the Vaciscveri pass (point 16)
turn left and ascend grassy slopes to reach the Southern spur of Passismta's
Southeast ridge. From here, ascend 350–400 m up the broad ridge with numerous
couloirs (loose rocks, "live" rocks, protection) of the southern spurs. Then, follow
a narrow, partially snow-covered (cornices, protection) easy rocky and degraded
Southern spur, and continue up the snow and ice slope to reach the summit plateau.
Turn left here and ascend the snowy plateau and easy degraded rocks to reach Passismta's
summit. The ascent from Vaciscveri pass takes 4–6 hours.
