The reason they started so late was that it was too windy earlier. Klein was without oxygen. It was very windy and cold. Ang Pasang was scared of getting frostbite on his feet. According to Klein the winds were pretty high (around 50km/h to 70 km/h) and it was too hard to carry on without oxygen. They descended to C4, where they arrived 12:30 am on 26 May. They stayed the night there, Klein and the Sherpa were sleeping on oxygen. On 26 May, they descended to C2 and on 27 May at BC. Suhajda reached C4 on 8 May on the acclimatization rotation. When Klein was leaving C2 for the summit push, Suhajda decided to go back to BC as he was sick (vomiting and diarrhea) and could not sleep. He felt too weak to go for a summit push. Team left BC on 28 May by helicopter. Oxygen: Suhajda did not use oxygen Taken and used for sleeping at C4 on descent by Klein Taken and used from C4 to high point to 7600m by Sherpas. Sherpas: Pemba Tenzing, Thamo, 23/08/1976 Ang Pasang, Thami, 19/06/1967
