Route Notes	The two members left Kathmandu for the mountain on 7 September, intending to climb it by the normal NW Ridge route. But one member, Ms. Sethsen, soon became sick and returned to Kathmandu, but Ms. Knudsen went to the site for BC at 4700m on 13 September. She had no intention to do any climbing as the only member; she just wanted to see the mountain from there and to see where they would have camped. No camp was established. Knudsen returned to Kathmandu on the 18th, and the two members together left Nepal on 21 September.
