Route Notes This team, which focused on making a film, was closely associated with the climbing expedition led by Mike Roberts. They shared a pool of 24 Sherpas, who carried loads to C1 and C2, and three of whom were killed by the avalanche of 18 April. None of their members went above BC before their climb was cancelled. After their arrival at BC on 12 April, they acclimatized and did a lot of filming in the BC area. Lydia Bradey, assigned to help the film-makers, left BC well after the members because the filming crew spent more days taking more pictures around BC. (The filming did not include footage about the Sherpa strike.)
