Suhajda left C4 at 9:.30 pm. Conditions were good. It was windier than expected, especially at 9 am. Some people who came down from the summit advised him to turn back as it was too windy, but he kept on going. He was very tired though as he has spent about 4 hours to make his platform for his tent and only rested from 6 am to 9:30 am, which was not ideal. He felt very sleepy on his way up to the summit. He spent about one hour on the summit taking videos and photos.

He descended to C4 where he arrived at about 7 pm. He rested until midnight and continued to C2, where he arrived in the morning. He spent the day at C2 and at 2 am on 16/05 he descended to BC. Left BC on 21/05 by trekking to Lukla.

Sherpas: Not used
