May 16 started from ABC both members together. Mees stayed in C2, Koller continued to 7900m, spent some hours in a tent belonging to Russell Brice with his permission. Started from 7900m at 10:30 pm (NST) on 16th and summited between 9:30-10 am stayed about half an hour, while descending met in 3rd Step 2 Austrians and Sherpas. While on summit saw many people descending on south side. Reached C2 20:00 hrs (he thinks). Next day to ABC.

Mees waited at C2 for improvement in weather condition. He could not sleep, got thirsty. Then he went down to ABC at 2 am. He did not want to take risk of going up (as a doctor) on the grounds of the crowds ahead. He thought weather would not improve then he gave up on the afternoon of 21st.

Lhakpa Sherpa up to 8300m.
