I start the recap of the Spring 2024 climbing season on Mt. Everest. I mention some of the books and documentaries that have come out/ will come out and where you can find Guy Votter's book in the US: Top Of The World Books. I go over some of the numbers including permit number, the total deaths on Everest since 1922, and last year compared to this year. There was a quick review of the policies/ rules that came out this year that probably didn't really change the climbing experience and why the season started late. Next week will be part 2, including #ropegate. Never a dull moment during Everest climbing season adn there will always be a little drama and some surprises. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/support

Today's topic is the best books about the 1996 Everest disaster. Each one is it's one different perspective. Recently I listened to an interview with Sandy Hill (Hill-Pittman), which reminded me that every single person on the mountain that year had their own very unique experience. Though some of the authors are very critical of the other climbers, some of these books are about the very personal stories of the individual climbers.
