wasoxygen where do you find this stuff? Every outdoor themed post I've seen you make/share has been outstanding content.

I am pretty sure I first saw a link to the Alan Arnette blog here on Hubski; I tried searching to give someone credit but couldn't find it. I've tried to follow news from Everest each year since reading Krakauer's book. It's great to get some of the thrill and inspiration while warm and dry. And I agree with Cedar, it's when things go wrong and get scary that the stories are most fascinating.

There's one other post from that domain, but looks like it had no attention here. There's also #nepal #everest and #outdoors, wish there was a way to merge tags other than the 'related tags'.

It must have been that post from WanderingEng that made me aware of the site.
