Route Notes Giuseppe Pompili (email) - 12 Aug 2014 Arrival at BC on 13 Oct 2013 (4850m). Departure from BC on 23 Oct. Reached C1 (5450m) on 15 Oct. We reached C1 and mounted our tent there on 15 Oct. Then, due to bad weather, we were not able to reach it again until 21 Oct. Due to the high danger of avalanches we were not able to continue above C1. As far as I know, nobody was able to summit Himlung or reach above C2 in 2013 from the old BC (were we have been). This was due to mainly to bad weather in the days of our expedition (12 to 23 Oct). We had no climbing Sherpas.
