Route Notes	Made same traverse above C3 to top as Merelli team and all other 29 April summiters. Left C2 at 3:00-3:10 am for top and on top 2:30 pm. Returned to C3 7:10 pm by Casarotto, 11:00 pm by Cristina helping Rosa Morotti descend: Morotti badly disturbed by husband's death and wanted to stay with his body; very difficult to get her to go down away from him. Dalla Longa died when very near top of couloir, he put ice axe with snow and axe didn't hold; Casarotto thinks Dalla Longa already dead from hitting head on rock and badly somersaulting. 30 April C3 to BC; arrived BC at 6:00 pm.
