The Dän Zhùr (Donjek) route is a challenging multi-day hike that crosses a variety of terrain: tussock plateaus, mountain passes, glacier viewing and numerous creek and river crossings. The mighty Donjek Glacier near the halfway point of this route is a highlight. Weather is a major factor on this hike, which affects water levels for creek crossings.

Great hike with great views. Still lots of snow at the top. Were there in June 2023 and even saw a porcupine. Here is my video with porcupine, if you like it: https://youtu.be/_5VxYDXEN7o Greetings from Germany Udo
