| Route Notes | BC at CBC/IC on Sept 15 at 5300m. Martini left C2 at 01:30 hours of Oct 1, summited at 09:00 hours, stayed on summit about 50 minutes, descended to C2 at 14:00 hours. Next day to ABC. Martini returned to Kathmandu on Oct 9 and will leave on Oct 16. Saw good view of Everest and other mountains. When asked whether Camilo Lopez summited, Martini said that he met Lopez descending between C2 and C3 and Lopez told Martini that he is going down because he is suffereing from stomach problem and vomiting. Martini said it is not possible that Lopez summited at all. He also asked me to check with Italian climber Svevo Mondino as Lopez and Mondino were climbing together. |
