Mallory and Irvine The Final Chapter: The others are gone....

Update 5/26/2004: The others are gone...

We appear to have the mountain to ourselves with only the few climbers who are brave enough to stick it out after so much death on the mountain left up here with us.

The road has been harder than expected. The bumps in the road have been many. Are we up it? Only time will tell...

But, we are only doing this once! We need a good window. Yan the French forecaster, says a window is soon. Patience is required. If it is meant to be, it will happen, if not it will not. We need a day.

Humble we must go, and humble we must return...

We have come to Mount Everest in search of an answer.
