Route Notes Schertler and Pemba left C3 at 6:30 am. Weather was calm and clear. About 20 cm new snow rope was fixed all the way to the summit. Good views. Weather deteriorated in afternoon and it started snowing. They descended to C1 where they arrived at 6 pm. Braito got to 5700m on 20 Oct but turned back due to cold hands. He thought he was getting frostbite. Fingers still numb. He remained in BC for rest of expedition. Sherpa: Pemba Gyalje Sherpa, Pangkoma, Solu, 29/11/73
