Route Notes	High point at summit plateau. 20 Sept midnight left C3 for top alone, her Sherpa Pasang Tsering left C3 after her and after 1/2 hour climbing up, he returned to C3 because very cold. She caught up with Koreans making trail and together up to plateau, where Koreans GPS read 8070m and they decided that was good enough and went down about 8:00 am in clouds. Anna tried to go on but snow too deep (waist deep) for her to continue alone and after 1/2 hour turned back with no real altitude gain. Down about 8:30 am 21 Sept and returned to C2. Down to ABC to arrange yaks to come later than originally ordered. 23 Sept up to C1, 24th to C2. Waited for wind to stop. 26th down again because of winds and climb finished. Mountain very easy. Want to return to Cho Oyu next autumn and arrive in mid-Sept when others had made routes (in spring '01 wants Lhotse) to reach a total of ten 8000ers.
