Laila Peak, Andrzej Bargiel, Jędrek Baranowski
Laila Peak (6096m). The mountain has a somewhat chequered history: first ascended, unofficially, in 1987 by the British mountaineers Andy Cave, Tom Curtis, Sean Smith and Simon Yates via the West Face, it was subsequently climbed in the early 90’s by a German expedition and by a Swiss expedition in 1993. The first official ascent was carried out in 1996 by an Italian expedition led by Oreste Forno: on 2 July Paolo Cavagnetto and Fabio Iacchini summited via the northwest ridge, while Camillo Della Vedova, Giovanni Ongaro and Guido Ruggeri followed in the footsteps the next day.
