Route Notes	High point at 7900m at 100m below couloir by Kirtola and Myllys. Kirtola and Myllys left C4 at about midnight. It was cold and a bit windy. The first 50m out of base camp there was a fixed rope, however, after that there was nothing. They fixed about 150m towards the couloirs, however, they ran out of rope and nobody had fixed up to there, so they decided to turn back. They had met Megan McGrath from Canada, who was also climbing Lhotse, and together with her they descended to C4. McGrath stayed another night at C4 as she was trying another summit push the following day. The Finns descended to C2 the same day, where they arrived at about 6 pm. Next day they descended to BC. Oxygen: All members from C3 to high point to the bottom of the Lhotse Face.
