Route Notes When arrived at mountain already deep snow and frequent new snowfall and snow did not consolidate. Made 3 carries of gear to ABC and from there up snow couloir twice reached 5600m on mixed snow and rock trying to reach C1 site at 5700m. Could not get to C1 because bad snow conditions and daily more snowfall made it pointless to continue. 4th May give up and twice go up to retrieve gear.
