Route Notes Summit team (7 climbers with 7 Sherpas) started summit push at 9:30 pm on 19 May, it was windy and they were the only team on the mountain at that time. 6 climbers and their Sherpas summited on 20 May. One Chinese climber Li Xiao-Lin and his Sherpa (Mingma Gyalje) touched 8300m (below Balcony) then descended back to C4 on 20 May due to Mingma Gyalje's sickness (chest pain). They both stayed there for few hours, then did a summit push again. They both summited at 7:15 am one day delayed on 21 May. They stood on the top for 5-10 mins; it was more windy than the day before. Archontidou's regulator and mask didn't work properly near top on 20 May, so her Sherpa gave his set to her. The same thing happened to Wang Xue-Feng at 8300m as well. Team descended to C4 at 10:45 am for one night and stayed at C2 for one night. They arrived BC on 23 May. Archontidou summited Everest at 8 am on 20 May and reached BC at 11:45 am (1h later than Christina) as the team's last member on 23 May. On the same day they flew from BC to Lukla by heli and back to KTM by flight. Oxygen: C3-Summit-C3 (Members and Sherpas) Christina Flampouri summited Lhotse at 9:45 pm on 14 May.
