| Route Notes | Tim Mosedale FB pages: November 21, 2024 We have summits! Lakpa Wongchu, Cheten, Pyla, Pinju and Pemba summited yesterday with Andy, Craig, Geoff, Olga, Sean, Graham and Yu Shuhan (Team 6) Unfortunately there was a turnaround for Gyalgen Dorje and Ted. November 28, 2024 We have more summits! A bit of a mixed day: Andy Brown (Team 6), Dave Macintyre (Team 6), Pemba and Paul summited mid-morning. Lakpa and John turned around from just above the Dablam. Chris Bradley (Team 6) had to abort near C3 on account of a broken crampon. I wouldn’t mind but it was the plastic toe cup that shattered, possibly on account of the cold which didn’t bode well for a crampon which is supposed to be used in, well, cold conditions. He was able to fabricate a temporary fix but we discussed this over the radio at 03:47 and he realised it was right to fix and descend. Fixing to continue on up could be fraught with havoc (and indeed I saw someone mend a crampon on Everest summit day on the N side in 2005 and they were never seen again). Ross and Pyla descended yesterday after getting 3/4 of the way along to C2. Meanwhile Antonella had a second night at C1 last night and made it to C2 today. However, her Khumbu cough and persistent sore throat have meant that she has drawn a line there. Bradley, Brown, Macintyre and Yu climbed with Tim Mosedale's group and are listed for Team 6. |
