Route Notes BC 15/11 4900m C1 21/11 5400m C2 27/11 6100m Smt 29/11 by Jyamchang Bhote, Purice, Barut Lama, Pasang Bhote, Pimba Tenzing Bhote at 1:26 pm. Team first attempted for the summit on 28 Nov. They left C2 at about 1 am, but Purice had very cold feet and was low on energy, so they turned back after about 2 hours. They stayed at C2 and rested all day. On 29 Nov they left at around 1:30 am. Very good climbing conditions. Almost no wind until the summit. Straightforward climb. They spent about half an hour on the summit and descended to C2 to stay the night. Rope was fixed by the previous group from TAG Nepal. Jyamchang’s team fixed some rope between C2 and the summit.
