| Route Notes | Kaiser only reached ABC on 23 October (his high point) Gufler and Gasser slept at ABC on the 25 October, then tried to go to C1 which was overcrowded, so just had to go back to the ABC same day, then BC the day after. With the weather forecast announcing strong winds from the 5 November, they knew on the 3 November they had to abandon. |
