BC at 5400m at lake beside Hunku Glacier
C1 just north of west side of West Col
C2 near start of SE Ridge
High point at 6950m on SE Ridge.

20 Oct tried to go to top from C2: Buescher, Dittmann, Goeggelmann, Listmann, Offner, Preuss, Selbach, Wenger, Tilin and Nima Sherpas. Started up at 4:30 am; 50m up Dittmann, Preuss, Selbach, Theiss stopped because it was very cold and they were tired; 150m up from C2, Listmann and Offner stopped where Goeggelmann came down from having gone on ahead and told them all not possible to go to top since could not fix ropes because of soft snow (had been 1 week of snow had fallen) and they went back; still up Goeggelmann, Wenger and Buescher and both Sherpas but at 6900m Wenger and Buescher and Nima stopped because Goeggelmann was waving signal to stop; he and Tilin gave up at 6950-7000m and climb now finished.
