Route Notes	BC 02/11 4600m C1 04/11 5800m HPt 05/11 5900m by Gatniejewski. Reason for abandoning expedition was that the mountain was too crowded and Gatniejewski was worried about his safety and wanted to get away from the crowds. He descended to C1 to pack up his camp and then to BC. Raport reached 5000m on 4 Nov. He was not feeling well and had problems with breathing and a bad cough, so he decided to stay at BC for the rest of the expedition. Team left BC on 7 Nov. Oxygen: Not taken, not used.
