Notes from Tracee Metcalfe: 9:30 am Dong Ishikawa Metcalfe Warner Kili Pemba Jit Bahadur Pemba Tenzing Mingma Gyalje 10.30 am Aasvang Thundu Sherpa Remaining members and Sherpa summited at 12 noon. Team set out at 11 pm on 08/04. Tam did not have enough rope to fix the long traverse below the summit. 1/2 of our team worked together using the same piece of rope in a leap-frog style, the second 1/2 did not use a rope there. It was a little challenge with rocks and a cornice to get to the summit plateau. After summiting, team descended, some to C3, C2 or BC.
