| mountaineer17 | 2007 Shishapangma Expedition Date Climbed: Sep 28, 2007 | |
| Alan is right! Two weeks of heavy snowfall prevented anyone on my team and for that matter in base camp from reaching the summit. I actually got buried completely inside my tent at Camp I. Dangerous avalanche conditions and deep snow caused all teams to leave base camp and head home. Was the leader of the 2007 International Shishapangma Expedition.

| Alan Arnette | Heavy Snows in 2007 Date Climbed: Oct 6, 2007 | |
| Heavy snows in 2007 prevented all but 2 climbers from a late arriving team from reaching either summit. But the expedition to Tibet was great and significantly less crowded than nearby Cho Oyu. Pictures, videos, etc on my site at www.alanarnette.com | |

| We reached the central summit. There was no wind and the view was brilliant. The traverse to the main summit was to risky. It looked dangerous for avalanches. The trip was great trip. all the people in Tibet (China) were friendly and the food was excellent. | |

| We reached the central summit at 1.30pm Nepali time. The snow was fairly awful, breaking through the crust several times, there was also powder snow high up making it too dangerous to traverse across to the main summit. Clear skies and little wind, great views and a great feeling to reach over 8000m. | |
