Granadam got to C1 on 17 Oct but returned to BC.
Hofert did not get above BC due to lack of motivation.

Beovardi got cerebral edema at 4800m on 8 Oct. He could hardly walk but waited until the next day to descend. Siebert descended with him to Langmale (4100m) on 9 Oct. But as Beovardi's condition deteriorated they descended further. On 3 Oct they called a helicopter, which picked him up at Yangle Kharka village (3500m).
