First went to N Col but many crevasses and so followed Korean direct route and to 6000m then down because heavy snow and slight wind. 9th Dec again to 6000m but 4 days wait because again snow and again to BC. 21 Dec up again but at 7000m Joan got a little altitude sickness so down to BC. Now had used most of food and fuel supplies but weather beautiful. No fixed ropes by this team had used Koreans ropes through badly broken crevassed area. Had only 500 kg loads on approach march.
