High Point: 13th April at 6300m by Morse and Mingma Dorje.

Team left C1 at 7 am on 12 April. Weather was good. There was not a lot of snow and the mountain was very dry. Mingma Dorje had fixed rope before, around 400m between C1 and C2.

They reached C2 at around 10 am. They stayed the night at C2 as they wanted to push for the summit on 13th April. However, the weather turned very bad during the night and as the conditions on the mountains were also very difficult, they decided to return to BC on 13th April. They left Ama Dablam BC to go to Lhotse on 15th May.

Fixed rope: 800m between C1 and C2.

Sherpa:
Mingma Dorje, Tapting, Solu, 17 July 1979, Everest in 2004, 2007 and 2008
