Route Notes	Henriksen's bad throat seems what weakened her; she did not have acclimatization problems. After she descended to ABC from C2, she planned to make summit bid, but prolonged bad weather set in (which blew away many team's tents at C1) and she newer went above C1 again. Henriksen was on the same permit as the expedition led by Damian Benegas. He said 4 Oct, 02 that she was a problem: did not want help from him, but did not listen to other people's suggestions, and did not acclimatize well.
