The pass is considered very difficult to cross. It was reached in 1830 by G.W. Traill, the first British Deputy Commissioner of Kumaon division, for whom it was named. In 1926, it was crossed by Hugh Ruttledge.[2]
Since 1830, Trail's pass has been attempted by more than ninety teams; As of October 2021[update], only twenty teams are known to have succeeded, most recently a group from Uttarakhand in October 2021.[3]
