Jacques Dantal left C4 at 2:45 am and arrived at summit at 7:15 am, stayed on summit for 20 minutes, left summit at 7:45 am, slept at C2 at 7:00 pm. He left C2 on the 31st at 8:00 am and arrived at BC 1:00 pm.

Ducerf stopped at C1 because he knew Remy and they were close friends and he decided not to go to the summit because he lost Remy as a friend (lived very close to Remy); he could have gone to summit as he was on good shape.

On 28 September at 10:30 am Narcy turned around because he passed the accident scene and saw the remnants from accident.

Riveros climbed with Jacques Dantal.

Note: Aldo Riveros web site gives summit time as 10:15 (sun angle confirms this); web site has photos showing two Sherpas on the summit (Ministry lists Mingma Tenjing and Mingma Tshering as summiters). One photo appears to be Mingma Tenjing. Only Dantal used oxygen.
