Route Notes On 29 Sept Felder, Keck and Sutterluety left C2 at 8 am. They were breaking trail. Hip deep at about 10 am they decided that snow conditions were precarious so they descended to BC, arrived at 2 pm. On 2 Oct the whole team Bartl, Felder, Keck and Sutterluety ascended to C1 and on 3 Oct they ascended to C2. During night weather it started snowing again and they decided to abandon summit push. On 4 Oct they descended to BC in deep snow. They left C2 at 8:30 am and arrived at BC at 2 pm. Climb abandoned due to snow conditions and the fact that Karl Kobler's kitchen team, which they had shared, wanted to leave as well.
