Lhotse:-
Iranian climber Azim Gheychisaz summited Lhotse today. His 13th (or 14th, someone might say) eight-thousander without bottled oxygen.

It may be regarded as 13th or 14th because of dispute about his Manaslu summit of 2012. As per historian Eberhard Jurgalski, who is single authority on all 14 eight-thousanders, the Manaslu summit is unrecognised and hence Azim should repeat the ascent to claim 14x8000ers.

Annapurna Summit Push:-
Rick Allen, Adam Bielecki and Felix Berg are on summit push. They apparently started the ascent from BC, couple of days ago.
No further details about route and team's progress are available. They acclimatised on Tilicho Peak, reaching summit in first week of May. The team originally intended to attempt Annapurna NW face in alpine style.

Dhaulagiri:-
Carlos Soria reached C2 yesterday and is expected to have left for C3 by now.
