| Route Notes | Exposito and Heymes left C2 at 8 am about 1 pm. Heymes reached at 6700m and he had to turn around due to strong wind and he went to C2. Exposita reached summit at about 5 pm, stayed on summit about 10 minutes. Weather was good but windy. He reached C3 at about 7:30 pm and slept in one of the empty sherpa tents. Next day to C2, sleep there and following day to BC. There was no body on the mountain on that day. The team returned Kathmandu on 4 November and will leave on 8 November. The team had to go to BC via Jiri after waiting 5 days in Kathmandu for Lukla flight which did not operate due to bad weather. |
