| Route Notes | C1 at North Col C2 by only Sherpa once High point at site for C3. "Sherpa" first goal was to put oxygen at C3 at 8300m and did so then started to establish camps. Sherpas made C2 and C3 but Anna never slept in them. Sherpa once between 18 and 21 May. On 21 May Anna and Sherpa to 7700m; both down to North Col to sleep and maybe Sherpa to ABC. Then Anna got bronchitis and when she had better health it was better, went up on 25th to C1, but not really much better so down on 26th and climb finished because not strong. |
