BC near lake
C1 just over West Col
High point at site for C2.

On their way to Baruntse BC, the entire team scaled Mera Peak on 21 Oct to acclimatize.

On 28 October, Rubito and Pemba Ongchu climbed from C1 to the site for their C2 at 6450m at the base of the SE Ridge and then rejoined other members in C1, and all descended to BC the same day.

They decided to abandon the climb that day. Other teams had not been able to get across a big crevasse on the ridge, there was a lot of snow on the mountain, and members were not in good condition.
