Schweizer left C3 on 30 April at 4 am. Weather was good. He had to manage many crevasses and slipped into two, but his rucksack saved him. Snow very loose as it was too warm. Reached high point at 11 am and spent 1-1/2 hours trying to get across crevasse. He descended to C2, where he arrived at 2 pm. On 1 May to BC and left across Amphu Laptsa to Everest BC.

John Carmody, Russell Tomlin and Peter Malliaras reached BC, but did not climb because of sickness.
