| Route Notes | Did not reach BC Did no climbing. 10th April Hongde and stopped there because Sirdar Dawa Tshering took off with all expedition's funds. Did not think snow would be a problem and thought would go up NW Ridge but with funds gone and rest of staff his men, so never reached BC and did no climbing on Annapurna IV. Stayed at Hongde 8 days, while runner went to Kathmandu to fetch more funds; funds did not came and had obligation to pay porters, which have just now done. Porter died before Hongde in slab avalanche (Tenzing Lama) on 26th March. |
