Route Notes	According to the dispatch of Monterosa to EverestNews.com, Nielsen summited on May 29 at 8:15 am (NST). The dates and altitudes are based on the information given by another climber Richmond MacIntyre who summited on the same day after Nielsen. I talked to Nielsen on the 3rd, he told me that he is going to stay some more days, he is very busy. On the 4th in the morning while meeting other climbers, I met Nielsen. He told me again that he is very busy - will see later. When I call him in the afternoon, he was already gone. Have sent an email twice but no response.
