BC near lake (normal site)
C1 just over West Col
C2 below start ridge
High point at couloir on SE Ridge.

16 Oct from C2 all members (except Koenigseder and Urban), Lhakpa Gyalzen and Gyalzen (20 yrs old) for summit bid. Went along ridge to a couloir, where big cornice is on right side of narrow ridge and impossible to fix rope in deep snow, soft and waist deep and too dangerous to jump across, so turned back here at 6950m. Now climb finished and all down to BC 16th afternoon.

Koenigseder left BC 5 Oct - no longer interested in Baruntse climb.
