| Route Notes | Team left BC on 13 Sept at 10:30 am it took them 4 hours to get to C1. They stayed for 2 nights to acclimatize and descended to BC on 15 Sept. On 17 Sept it started to snow again. On 22 Sept Danvoye and two Sherpas ascended to C1 to dismantle camp. They had to dig it out. Even though they dismantled camp on 22 Sept, the final decision to abandon climb was taken on 24 Sept. The reason was that there was too much snow and avalanche danger. They left BC on 26 Sept and walked out via Larkya Pass. Sherpas: Tendi Sherpa, Taksindu, Solu, 1967, Everest 2004 Namgel Sherpa, Thami, Khumbu, 1971 |
