Initial plan was to summit alone on a speed ascent. Summit push started at BC on 26/09 at 6:15 pm. Reached C3 at 00:30 am. There he changed clothes, rested for 1 hour and continued. Reached his highpoint at around 6850m sometime in the early morning. Strong winds and he decided to turn around.

He tried again on 01/10, but weather very bad. Got to C3, stayed there for 2 nights waiting for better conditions, but didn’t happen. Back to BC on 03/10. An avalanche destroyed parts of the base camp on 03/10 and he decided to abandon the climb. Left BC on 03/10 flight to Samagaon and on to KTM.

Climb abandoned on 03/10 due to avalanches, bad conditions.
