A Few Moments is harrowing. Do you have a copy of the Mountain 71 that the complete accident is reported in?

Thanks!
I'm interested in anything about Nepal, Khumbu, and Sherpas.

Jeff's solo adventure is truly inspiring and out there! I hope that he will join in.

How many hook placements did they enhance?

Steve: Thanks for posting up a great group of articles. I looked at the post on my first read ------and had "dejae vue all over again."
I had read the two articles from Mountain, while researching Royal Robbins ads, about a week ago.
What's the odds that two Tacoites would be reading the same 1970's Mountain articles in such a short time-span?
That Jello-----he was a "rope rocket."

Hey Wildobeast. Keep your adolescent remarks within the WOS threads and stay out of Steve's historical contributions, unless you have something pertinent to add. You're like the heckler in the back of the classroom, who knows nothing of the current discussion. Right, this is history son, so pay attention.

Awesome! I remember raptly reading this stuff; too bad I moved too many times and always purged before each move. I left too many mags and catalogs and gear on the curb.
Jello's account of Ama Dablam is one of my favorite reads.

Another view from the Book of Modern Mountaineering edited by Malcolm Milne, 1968.

Michael- Fantastic adventure for your team! Thanks for sharing the photos.
Do you recall what year the mountain was closed to climbing?

I agree with Pate: great pics, Michael! What a classy mountain...
And Steve, Tom Frost can make anyone look like a stud, when all the while the real stud is behind the lens.
