From the
Mazeno-Highcamp it is a 3-5 hours steady ascent across gravel on a moraine to the
Mazeno-Pass (5.377m) which is about 5km ahead. The picture below show details of the
Highcamp, with the Mazeno Pass in the distance (taken with a 135mm telephoto-lens so the
distance looks near).

The very last 45
minutes of the ascent to Mazeno-Pass the path becomes flat and you can see an impressive
wall of snow and ice formed by the wind in the gap.

Mazeno-Pass itself is a small snow- and ice-wall. The views from there are limited
by the rock-walls on each side.
