Autumn 1980 season
36 expeditions, of which 15 put someone on the summit. 67 summits (58 by members, 9 by hired staff) and 8 deaths, among 357 members and 31 hired staff recorded.
Summits count member records: someone who summited twice on one expedition counts once, someone on two expeditions in the season counts twice. Claimed (unrecognised) ascents are excluded and disputed ones included, as in the database's own statistics. Hired staff are only recorded when they went above base camp.
