Route Notes	The first Everest summiters of the season were two IMG Sherpas fixing rope, Mingma Tenzing and Panuru on 5 May. The expedition's members summited on 20, 21 and 22 May. The first lot left C4 on 19 May at 8:15 pm. They were Bergum, Carstens, Eddy, Hamill, Parazynski and Wardle. Bergum and Carstens reached the Balcony, then turned back very tired; with them were Pemba Dorje and Da Sonam respectively. The rest were on the top around 4:00 am on the 20th: Parazynski with Danuru, Eddy with Mingma Tshering, Hamill with Kancha Nuru (Phortse) and Wardle, a film producer, with Sanduk Dorje and Kancha Nuru (Pangboche), whose job was carrying sound equipment for the filming project. All were down in C2 late that afternoon except Hamill and Wardle, who went to C2 the next day. Green and Mingma Dorje left C4 for top on 20 May at 11:00 pm, were on the summit at about 7:30 am on the 21st and stayed in C4 that night. On the 21st, Kamen Kolchev, Petya Kolchevka, Justin Merle, Shea and Sherpas made their bid for the summit. Kamen Kolchev and his wife Petya left C4 at 9:30 pm, he with Pasang Rinji and she with Nima Karma. Merle (with no Sherpa) and Shea with Phinzo waited until midnight to move up. The party summited on the 22nd at 6:00 am to 7:00 am. All went to C4 between 9:00 am and 1:00 am and were back in BC on the 23rd. The expedition's health problems consisted of two members chest pains and one ribs injury (see non summiting members), plus a Sherpa cook got pneumonia and a climbing Sherpa had a stomach problem. Other non-summiting members: Audet reached C3, descended with chest pains, left BC on 8 May. Golden reached the South Col, left early because of crushed ribs from a fall. Luggar, who was on the permit for IMG's Lhotse team led by Greg Vernovage, reached BC with the Everest climbers but never got above BC. She was sick and tired, and she left in the first part of April. Masek got to C3 but lost motivation and left 12 May. Norris got to C2 but became sick and left early. Remington also reached C2 but lost motivation and left in late April. Samuel developed chest pains in C3 and left 20 May. Simonson stayed in BC for the duration of the climb. Tucker went into the Icefall with a client on 14-15 April, stayed in BC the rest of the time, not interested in joining the hordes (he had summited in 1990 with an American-Soviet-Chinese team via the North Col). Oxygen was used by all members in summit parties in C3 to their high points to C3 or lower. The summit party Sherpas used it in C4 to their high points to C4.
