BC at CBC/IC on 16th - 6000m
C1 at North Col.

Hill left C2 on May 21 at 02:00 hours (NST) using oxygen, reached 8200m at about 07:00 hours. There was not enough time for him to put up C3 and actually he wanted to try out how the oxygen work in high altitude. He turned back to C2, dismantled C2, then down to C1 where he reached at noon time and spent night at C1. Next day to ABC.

He said he has to get back to America to join an expedition to Alaska. Hill will leave Nepal on May 31. He is staying at Souvenir Guest House for 3 nights.
