Both brothers succeed in ascending the summit of the peak, in-spite of cold and heavy snowy weather at the summit, they decide to ascend down the peak as soon as possible, as Gunther is injured and suffering injuries to harsh weather and lack of food.

    On their way back, avalanches hits their way, which takes the life of Gutnher. Reinhold being dejected, makes his way down through the shorter way which leads to the Diamir face of the peak, instead of taking way back to his base camp at Rupal flank. Meanwhile, the other two members reach back to their base camp claiming the death of Messner brothers.
