Route Notes	Started for top at 11:30 pm later on 19th, on top between 10:00 and 11:00 am, to C3 at 8:00 pm late because of helping Bulgarian Hristo to descend (he later died), but slept outside tent and crawled into it on 21st and stayed in tent all day of 22nd. Changhe's members asked Brice to ask Sherpa to look for him and they found him still in his tent, mentally confused but basically okay. Dawa Nuru from Gheorge Dijmarescu's expedition, Ang Mingma of Meggitt-Lochner expedition went to C2 and in hip deep snow on up to C3, found Carro still there cooking placidly, forced him to pack up, put him on oxygen and he walked from C3 to C1 escorted by Sherpas, who there bringing down tents and gear; suffered medium frostbitten fingers.
