Mientras el equipo de Migma G, compañía encargada de equipar la ruta anunciaba que habían conseguido instalar un buen número de cuerdas fijas con éxito en el cuello de botella, superando la avalancha que sufrieron sus sherpas el día de ayer, el suizo Mike Horn parece que tenía otros planes.
Horn estaba en pleno ataque a cumbre, iniciado hace dos días y ajeno a la reciente avalanche. Pero según informa el mismo a través de su cuenta de Facebook, al llegar a una altura de unos 8.200 metros, los fuertes vientos y pequeñas avalanchas constantes le hicieron descender.
