If you are comfortable with the cold and snowfall then it will be fine.Hopefully,with some luck you will be able to catch a view from Dzongri top.If not, it will be an interesting journey at the least.

I have done the Yuksom-Dzongri-Thangsing trek in May 2007. Dec is quite late in the season and could be very cold. Oct-Nov, the visibility is great. I am not sure about Dec.

The view from hillock above Dzongri is impressive. But personally, i saw better views of Kanchenjunga and Mt Pandim from Thangsing. It's even better if you can trek towards Samiti Lake and Goe-chala.

Yes I have been there.On a clear day the view of the total range from Dzongri Top is very good indeed.The best thing is to avoid the trekker's hut and pitch tents on the meadow half a kilometer across the ridge.The views are splendid from there.But in December with the cold and possible snowfall, that can be difficult.
