Route Notes High point at 6000m at C2 site. Alejandre, Elorza, Errekalde, Fernandez and Jimenez left C1 at about 9 am. On both the 18 Oct and 20 Oct. The weather was good in the morning and bad in the after on both days. On 20 Oct they did not stay at C2 as they had decided not to carry on due to too much snow and the lack of fixed rope. They did not stay night as there was no space, so they descended to C1. Kortabarria and Trabado reached C1. Kortabarria felt altitude sick and decided to return to BC. Trabado stayed with him. They got to C1 on 17 Oct but did not stay the night, but back to BC.
