Route Notes	Szejwallo left the mountain on 25 September because of the fatal avalanches on 23 September. Hudson did not get above C4 because he was much too tired to continue to climb up it. On 2 October he descended from C4 to C2 and was back in BC on the 4th. His climb was over. Two members had not climbed together, they met on the internet: each was looking for a climbing partner.
