After trekking around the lower Khumbu and crossing the Renjo La and Cho La we arrived at BC on the 21st October. We spent one night (the 21st) there, one night at ABC (22nd), one night at C1 (23rd), two nights at C2 (24th and 225th). I believe the higher camps altitudes are as follows: ABC 5150m, C1 5400m, C2 5800m, though I am not 100% on these elevations, it is what I was reading on GPS.

We departed C2 at 03:00. Chewang Nima joined us from C1 which he left at 01:30. All 3 climbing members summited at 09:00 and descended about 20 minutes later arriving at C2 around 13:00; we decided to descend all the way to BC and arrived there at around 19:00, Chewang a bit ahead of us.
