Route Notes Bad weather: much snowfall and were first to C1 and C2 so had to make track. C2 made down because Blanchi and 2 Sherpas only made it and Sherpas tired. Only 2 members in good form while others suffering somewhat from altitude and tired. 28th Blanchi and 1 Sherpa at high point. 1 Oct Beguin and Martin reached same height but in both cases climbers too tired to continue higher. Weather now becoming windy and colder and expedition had no more time: had to leave BC 4th Oct.
