Summit on 19 May by Dendi, Ngim Chhamji, Pem Lhakpa at 12:30 pm.

Team never stayed at C3; on their summit attempt they moved from C2 directly to C4, which took them 9 hours.

Team left C4 at 8 am on 18 May. They had about one hour waiting time at the Hillary Step. They spent about 20 minutes on the summit. About 15 other people were up there. They descended to C4, where they arrived at 8 pm. They were so late as the queues at the bottlenecks were so long.

On 20 May they descended to C2 and on 21 May to BC. They left BC on 22 May and walked to Lukla.
