Summit team left at 12:30 am. Straightforward climb. They spend about 30 minutes on the summit and descended to C4, where they arrived at between 6 pm and 7:30 pm.

Ness reached 8006m on 21/05. He reached C4 on 20/05 and was very tired and did not feel strong enough to go up on 21/05, but could stay for another night. However, the team had NINE oxygen bottles stolen at C4, so there was not enough oxygen for him to stay another day and night and then go to the summit. He stayed at C4 on 21/05 and walked up to 8006m to break the 8000m mark.

On 22/05 everyone down to BC and left BC on 25/05 by heli.

Oxygen: Taken and used C3 to top C3 by members, from C4 by Sherpas.
