| Route Notes | On 1 Oct Crellin and Naga left ABC at 7 am Nepali time. They reached C1 at midday, had some food and carried on to high at 2:30 pm. Crellin felt fine but he decided to turn back as he knew that he had no oxygen left for higher up. They descended to C1, dismantled it and descended to ABC. Crellin feels that he was ill advised about oxygen as he only had one bottle. Sherpa: Nando/Naga/Nang Dorje, Khumjung, 30/12/1966, Everest X3, Cho Oyu X3 |
