Everest Spring 2024 Recap Part 1

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.
