Team started for summit from C2 at 1 am. Luciani and Kusang Tenzing Sherpa summitted at 8 am, Prem Magar summitted shortly after, at around 8:15 am. It was cold and windy, but good conditions overall. They stayed on top for 20 minutes. Descended to C1, which they reached at 4:30 pm. Stayed the night at C1, next day everyone was back at BC.

Weber had problems with his left eye, eye turned blind because of dryness. He had to turn around at approximately 6700m between 7-7:15 am because of his eye and cold feet. He descended alone to C2, where he waited for 2 hours in his sleeping bag for the others. From C2 to C1 the entire team descended together.

Team left BC on 25 Nov.

Oxygen: Not taken, not used.

Accidents: Weber had to turn around 100m below summit because his left eye turned blind and he had cold feet. Prem Sherpa also developed problems with his eyes on descent (dryness). Both took eyedrops and are already fully recovered.
