The summiters were Drexler, Hinterwimmer, Netzer, Pasang Temba and Pemba Jangbu. They left C3 at 3:00 am and were on the top from 11:15 am (Pemba Jangbu) to 12:00 noon (Hinterwimmer and Netzer). The weather was clear with strong wind from the southwest. The members slept in C2 that night, the Sherpas went down to BC.
