Route Notes Approach: Monjo, Namche, Khumjung, Dole, Gokyo Peak, Kharka before Cho La Pass, Lobuche, Kalapattar, Pangboche C1 at 100m below the normal C1 site. Filimonov left C2 at about 6:30 am, reached summit at 2:30 pm, stayed on summit about 15 minutes, descended to C2 site at about 5:30 pm. Next day to Pangboche. Filimonov was alone on summit. While descending he met some climbers going up for summit, but he does not know if they reached summit. Summit day weather was very good but cold. The night of 3 Nov was warm due to accumalation of clouds over the mountain. Skripko climbed up to C2 and had to descend to C1 as there was not enough space to put their own tent in C2. Filimonov spent night in C2 in an empty tent of another expedition while making his summit push. Filimonova and Oborotov left expedition from Pangboche on 31 Oct due to fatigue. They arrived Kathmandu on 3 Nov. The team returned Kathmandu 9 Nov and will leave on 10 Nov. Leader will leave after 2-3 days later.
