After acclimatization Dujmovits went back down to CBC on 15 May. He stayed there until 21 May. High Point team started from C3 at 1 am. Weather was calm and clear. Dujmovits was feeling very strong. At about 4 am it started to snow and get windy at the 1st Step. Dujmovits got cold very quickly and found some protection from the wind on the rock and contemplated what to do. After about 10 minutes he decided to go down. Namgyal told him to take some oxygen, which he did for the descent as his no-O2 ascent was over anyway. They descended to C3, where they arrived at 5 am. Dujmovits slept for a bit and then they descended to ABC. On the way he stopped at C1, where he met the Kobler team and they sat down and chatted for a while. Got to ABC at about 3:30 pm. On 28 May to CBC. He felt very tired and took 7 hours to get there. Left CBC on 30 May.
