Route Notes	Todd and Pasang Dawa left C3 on 12 May at 22:30, summited on 13 May at 8:34 am, stayed 2 minutes (just long enough to take 3 photos in a white-out), then descended to C4 arriving at 14:30. They climbed the night of 12 May and did not spend the night at C4 until our descent from the summit. Strong winds. Fresh very soft snow on route meaning trail had to be broken. Very heavy clouds and poor visibility. Clouds lifted at approx 09:00 (on our descent and 30 mins after we had summited). Oxygen: Todd used oxygen on the ascent from C3 (7200m) and during summit day and returned to C4 with the remainder. Used it in the tent until it ran out then, descended from C4 without any further use of oxygen. Sherpas used from C3 to smt to C4. Sherpa: Pasang Dawa, 40
