Route Notes	BC northwest corner of Tilicho (site reached by one member but no camp pitched and no climbing done). Stopped at 4600m next of Mesokanto Pass, farthest porters would go on 16th April. Jacquier went onto BC site with sirdar on 20th April but did not make BC. Very cold and windy and deep snow beyond Mesokanto Pass to BC, so not possible for porters to carry loads to BC and in fact no BC established. Went to Jomsom 21 April and Neuenschwander and Chamot left there 22nd while others two are leaving soon with baggage.
