| Route Notes | BC at normal site C1 above North side Col C2 below North Col High point at NE Face 200m below North Ridge. 5 May all 8 members and 2 Sherpas left C2 for C3 at 7:00 am; Trisl turned back at 7000m tired and down to C1. Others up 7280m and down to C2 and next day to BC. Reason turned back was strong wind and heavy snowfall. 8th and 9th rested. 10th up to C1; 6300m-6400m on 11th but again snow and wind so down to BC. In this 2nd summit push, were all members (except Trisl) plus both Sherpas. Only this team fixed ropes; no other team fixed any; fixed from BC to highest point but most of it (6500m) between C1 and C2 because of many crevasses seracs in steep NE Face. Sherpas: Pemba Dorje, aka Junge Pemba, 7/7/70, Kharikhola, Everest 23/5/03 Pasang Nuru, Kharikhola, brother of Pemba Dorje, 14/12/77, no 8000ers |
