Conditions made the route slightly harder: worse ice, softer snow, patches of wet rock, a less convenient bergschrund. But the line was still recognizably the same.
Multi-day route, usually around 2–5 days. Planned bivouacs, high self-reliance, difficult retreat; a fast exit and outside help are not guaranteed.
There are isolated dangerous spots, but they are short or well controlled by start time and line choice. The risk is usually clear and local.
Mixed picture: recurring run-outs, dubious placements, slabs, ledges or swings. A fall may end in injury.
