Smt 06 May by Gheichisaz and Halung Dorchi at 8 am.

Gheichisaz and Halung Dorchi left C5 at 10 pm on 5 May. The weather was clear and cold and about 40 cm of new snow on the ground. The climb was straightforward and they spent about 15 minutes on the summit to take photographs.

Gheichisaz descended to C3 where he arrived at 11 am. Halung Dorchi stayed at C5 where he arrived at noon. He had problems with his left eye, probably related to the wind.

The next day both descended to base camp.

Sadegh reached C3 on 18 April. It was the day when an avalanche hit C3. They lost a bit of their equipment and their tent was destroyed. Sadegh was still intending to join the summit push, however, when they left for their attempt new snow had fallen and Sadegh considered the avalanche danger too high. She turned back at C2 on 2 May and stayed at BC for the rest of the expedition.

Oxygen: Not taken, not used.
