Route Notes C1 site at 6000m reached by Rafal Fronia (attempting Everest), Bartosz Ziemski, Wadim Jablonski, Mariusz Hatala, Piotr Krzyzowski and Oswald Rodrigo Perejra. The Icefall was not ready. Not prepared by "Icefall Doctors" resulting it was too dangerous. The weather was ok. The problem was with "Icefall Doctors" responsible for fixing and prepering the way througth the Khumbu glacier. After reaching BC we were waiting for opening way to C1 and C2 what was contracted with our agent. Unfortunately there were only two Icefall Doctors and they did not do their work in reasonable time. Because of that we could not begin our climb in the higher part.
