| Route Notes | Pisek left C3 1:20 am (NST) for top alone, reached top 9:20 am in fog, but got to prayer flags so he was on top. Pecovnik did not go for top because of a "problem" with his leg, which he did not explain. Kalicanin also did not try for top because he was not interested in making the effort. |
