Choktoi I Attem pt. Malcolm Howells, Barry Whybrow, Jim Curran and I attempted Choktoi I (20,229 feet) in July. This small, attractive granite peak lies between the Choktoi and Nobande Sobande glaciers. We made reasonable progress until a nine-day storm left the steep mixed face covered with fresh snow when we had only three days left to make the summit. D a v id P o t t s , Alpine Climbing Group
