| Route Notes | Team left C2 at 1:35 am on 3 Oct and arrived at C3 at 5:30 am. They had to break trail between C2 and C3 as the wind had blown tracks away. They stopped at C3 for 2 hours to warm up in a tent. It was very cold and windy. When they reached the summit, they had good views of Everest. They met two American skiers on the top (probably Rori Stark). They spent 15 minutes on summit and descended to C2 where they arrived at 6:30 pm. The next day they dismantled C2 and C1. They left C2 at 8:30 and arrived at ABC at 2:30 pm. |
