Woolums was initially planning to attempt the summit on 25 May, but changed his mind due to the high winds that were forecasted. He thought it would have been reckless to go up with the bad weather and the crowds. So they spent another night at the South Col.

Summit team left C4 at 11 pm on 25 May. No traffic until the South Summit. 30 minutes wait at Hillary Step. Straightforward climb. There were about 20 people on the summit. They spent about 45 minutes on the top and descended to C4, where they arrived at 11 pm and stayed the night there. On 27 May they descended to C2 and on 28 May to BC.

Seiwald reached about 6900m at the bottom of the Lhotse Face on 7 May. She decided to leave the expedition 20 May as she thought the climbing conditions were too dangerous.
