Route Notes	High point at C3. Hidalgo left C2 on 4 Oct at 1 am. Snow was deep and it was very tiring. Weather was good. When he reached C3 he felt very tired, but as he was intending to summit from C2, he did not have tent or food. He decided to descend to BC. Arrived at 7 pm. He rested at BC for two days. On 7 Oct he ascended from BC directly to C2 in five hours. He left C2 for another summit push at 10 pm, but turned back to C2 after 1 hour. He was too tired. On 8 Oct he left C2 again for summit push at 8 am, but turned back after 3 hours as the weather was very bad. No visibility. He was alone on the mountain. He arrived at BC at 8 pm.
