The exit is situated on the south west ridge of Ama Dablam, 6000m. Exit height is 180m to the slope, but with big ledge 85m below exit. We had some downwind, coming from the right. Valery exited a little head down and couldn’t manage to recover quickly because of the downwind. He impacted the ledge 85m below.
