| Route Notes | Baena Roca, Guerrero Martinez and Nima Gyalzen left C3 at about 4:30 am CST. Baena Roca turned around to C3 from 7700m (below rock band) as his hands became very cold since gloves were not good enough to keep his hand warm. Guerrero Martinez and Nima Gyalzen reached summit between 10-10:30 am CST (7:45-8:15 am NST), stayed on summit about 40 minutes, descended to C3 about 1 pm, rested about an hour then to C2 sleep. Next day to ABC. Weather below summit plateau it was very cold and windy. Summit was sunny but very cold. Saw Everest, Lhotse beautiful pictures. While on summit about 3 people with oxygen and other 4 or 5 with Sherpas arrived. Others on summit were Italians and 2 Spanish. The team returned Kathmandu on 8 Oct and try to leave on 10 or 11 Oct.
