Mallory, Irvine, and Everest

While in the alps I listened (again) to PATHS OF GLORY, the historical fiction about the 1920 attempts on Mount Everest. Last evening on my return, I got an email that said, the National Geographic documentary "The Wildest Dream" was available on Netflix. Fantastic viewing ... The pictures are of their small tent at 27,000+ feet, and Odell who was the last to see them going strong just 600 feet below the summit.
