To the top of the world and back (Part 2)

Deloitte Consulting senior manager Ian Stewart achieved his longtime goal of climbing Mount Everest in 2019. It turns out that getting up to the 29,000-foot peak was the easy part. In the second of a two-part episode, Ian describes the harrowing journey back from the summit. He talks about how the surprisingly large crowds of fellow mountaineers, the ticking clock of an emptying oxygen tank, and a massive ice storm made his safe return home no guarantee.
