Route Notes	Summit on 11 May Pepper and Dawa Tenzing at 2:30 pm. Team left C3 at 12:15 am. Weather was clear and there was a broken trail as Dawa Tenzing and Adventure Consultant Sherpas had fixed the rope on the previous day. There was a lot of blue ice just below C4 at 7300m, which the Sherpas still needed to fix during their summit attempt. Pepper and Dawa Tenzing stopped at the bottom of the cornice as the fixed rope along the cornice was very thin. They spent about 20 minutes on the summit. They descended to C3, where they arrived at 8 pm. The following day they descended to BC and took a helicopter from Samagaon to Kathmandu on 13 May. Oxygen: Taken and used from C3 to summit to 7200m by Pepper. No oxygen used by Sherpa. Sherpa: Dawa Tenzing, Thamo, Khumbu, 21/3/1986
