Yeah, I adopted and deleted the original page, then immediately put up a totally new one. Hopefully they'll be some more pictures submitted at some point. When I was in the area the mountain was completely covered in cloud. Lee
Now I understand- conclusion: your page is definitely better (as others made by you).
I found a little mistake: first ascent of SW summit made by Polish team (leader: Piotr Mlotecki). Przemyslaw Nowacki and Martek Malatynski died on the ridge during the second bivouack and Andrzej Zygmunt Heinrich was the only one who survived. He died in avalanche on May 29, 1989 on Mount Everest near Lho La pass with four other Polish climbers (Waclaw Otreba, Miroslaw Gardzielewski, Miroslaw Falco Dasal and Eugeniusz Chrobak who summited Everest 3 days earlier).
