From Cadiach route notes: Cadiach and Miguel Angel Perez (from Chomolungma Pilgrimage) did not stay at C2, but went from C1 to C3 directly, which was very exhausting. On summit day, they left C4 at 6 am. Conditions were good; weather was windy and clear. Up to the traverse the snow was knee-deep. Last section technically difficult and very exposed. They took 10 hours to get to summit, where they spent about 10 minutes. They descended to C5, where they arrived at 5 pm. They found Cleo and her Sherpa, who were on their way to the summit, in their tent. Cadiach and Perez could not sleep or eat and were very exhausted. On 26 May Perez and Cadiach were attempting to reach BC, but could not make it one day due to fatigue. At 10 pm they set up a bivouac at 5500m, where they spent the night. They slept until 4 am descended to BC, where they were picked up by helicopter at 7 am. Oxygen: not taken, not used. From Perez email to Billi - 5 March 2013 Perez and Cadiach left C4 at 6 am.
