Jones, Furneaux, Sasseville, Bjarnason, Ainscough and 5 Sherpas (Thendorje, Pasang Yila, Chheden Dorje, Mingma Dukpa and Phurba Bhote) reached C4 on 23 May at 3 pm. They were shocked to see that most of their food was stolen and it was not enough for summit. Phurba Bhote went down to get food that is why summit push was delayed by one day. On 24 May team left C4 at 8:30 pm. Ainscough and Bjarnason turned back at 8250m since Ainscough had problems with oxygen mask and Bjarnason felt onset of AMS.
