Goh from C3 27th Sept 1:30 am from top with Kami Tshering Sherpa, on top at 7:15 am, saw Everest in clear day, down to ABC 3:00 pm. Goh and Kami used no oxygen at all.

Lim left C3 for another summit bid 30 Sept 1:30 am with Dorje, on top 10:30 am in beautiful weather and down to ABC to sleep at 7:00 pm. Both Lim and Dorje used no oxygen on this ascent. Lim used oxygen first ascent because had not been on 8000m summit before and not sure how he would make out; also acclimatized more slowly than Goh.
