Route Notes	High point at 6350m at beside Dablam glacier. Email from Peter Widhalm - 22 December 2013 Group has arrived in BC 1 November. November 4 load carry to C1 and pitched tent there. November 12 I climbed to C2 and spent the night there all alone. The Sherpas of Alpenglow Expedition had fixed ropes a little above C3 on November 11. So I decided to try the summit on November 13th. All alone I have climbed on the ropes up to Mushroom Ridge, continued on the new ropes of Alpenglow to C3 and above to the end of the ropes. I continued from there around 100-150m in altitude without ropes to end up beside the Dablam glacier. There I decided to turn arond due to the relatively soft snow and the very steep face. This was at around 6350m. After the attempt on November 13th I descended to BC to arrive BC in the evening. Climb was finished for me then.
