I neither have ice axe, crampons (which fit boots!), helmet, prussiks x2, 2 locking carabiners (best if one big and one small) and 2 non-locking (or more locking) so far. Can I borrow that stuff from VOC?

trailhead is at 3700 ft - that means ~ 6500 ft or ~ 2200 m elevation to cover.

assuming no obstacles, if we walk 2-3 h in the evening, we should be around 2000m at least. the remaining 1200 m elevation can be done in three hours - wake up at 4:30 leave at 5 summit 8-9? sleeping at toe of glacier? at what altitude is that?

sleeping outside under sky tent if not raining.
