| Route Notes | Polish Himalayan Expedition Tilicho Lake and Climbing - 25 October 2007 The climbing party never was able to reach base camp for their intended climb via the NE Spur to North Ridge. They did finally get to the south side of Tilicho Lake on 12 October and the camp at 4920m for a diving party with them, but no farther. There wasn't a day when it did not snow, and even if they had gotten to their base camp north of the lake, the weather was very bad and the mountain was avalanching day and night. They left the lake camp on 17 October to return to Kathmandu. The members came back to Kathmandu on 23 October, but their baggage did not come with them: porters were unable to reach the lake camp for days. The team expected it to arrive on the evening of the 28th or on the 29th.
