"First of all we'ld like to express all our sorrow concerning Jean-Noel Urban's death...We will always remember those happy time, which we had spent together. Jean-Noel was an exellent mountaineerer and skier, member of FFME Himalaya committee.
No good news. We had to shorten our second acclimatization going out for unsatisfactory weather conditions. On June 17 we departed to Savoja glacier, where on 5400 m, behind the bottom of SW wall of K2, settled the camp. The weather was bad. But on June 18 we made the ascending up to 5800 m. Having known about thagedy with Urban, we took a decision to return in BC.
In first weather window we're planning to continue acclimatisation- will spend 2 nights on 6500m".
