at 9:30 am, Keck and Renner at 9:45 am, Birnbauer, Grade and Ngima
Chhiring (again) at 1 pm (NST).

Summit team left C3 at 1 am Nepali time. The weather was clear, but surrounding mountains were in clouds. Straightforward climb. The first team stayed about one hour on the summit. On their way down, the first team bumped into Birnbraeuer and Grade, who were still on their way up at about 11 am. Ngima Chhiring turned around and went back to the summit with them, thus Ngima Chhiring summited twice in one day.

Everybody, apart from Grade and Keck, descended to C2, where they arrived at about 6 pm. Grade descended to C3, where he arrived at 6 pm; Keck descended to ABC, where he arrived at 1 am on 2 Oct.

Ehrlicher reached C2 on 19 Sept during the acclimatization rotation. On 29 Sept he abandoned the climb at about 6700m due to a bad headache.

On 2 Oct everybody was back at ABC at about 3 pm.
