Spring 1981 season
43 expeditions, of which 25 put someone on the summit. 98 summits (81 by members, 17 by hired staff) and 2 deaths, among 449 members and 34 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.
