this is horrendous
40 climbers passed a dying man. two hours from camp. not one of them would pass their chance for glory to care for this man? 2 hours from camp? these climbers were many more than two hours from their summit. they had many more than 2 hours worth of time to help.
excuses? brain deprived of oxygen? so they must push on? right.
disgusting.
every climber who passed that man should have his/her name posted on the internet so the world can know what he/she did to get their moment of glory.
their everest conquest should come with a asterik dipped in blood.
See post #24
Two hours from a tent that was still in the "death zone."
Staying at that altitude for more than 24 hours means death.
