Amical Alpin Manaslu Expedition, Spring 2007 - 29 May 2007 Summit party left C3 at 2:00 am on the 19th. Three turned back before the top: Assfalg at 7600m because both thumbs had gotten frostbitten (he descended to C2), Johannes Bachmann also at 7600m and down to C2 because his feet were very cold; and Karma Gyalzen Sherpa at 7900m because of a stomach problem and cold feet. Those who went to the summit were Dujmovits, Eberhard, Hadel, Stihler, Josep Bachmann, Fessler, Takeuchi, Vedani and Pasang Nuru Sherpa. They summited between 9:55 and 10:55 am. All went down to C2 except Hadel, who was exhausted and reached C3 only at 9:30 pm and Dujmovits, who gone up from C3 to the summit plateau to look for him, but it was foggy so returned to C3 and waited for Hadel and stayed with him there that night. Non-summiting members: Herrmann went to C2 only, left expedition 15 May to go trekking with his wife Linke went to C2 on 17 May, decided mountain was too big and went no higher Nestler was expected to stay at BC but went to C1 once The expedition fixed 750m of rope: 100m between C1 and C2, 600m between C2 and C3, 50m between C3 and summit.
