Krakaurs "Into thin air: really got me mesmerized by the stories, i have read several other books including "the climb" by Anatoli boukreev and a couple others by Brashears and viesturs. One amazing thing is Ed Viesturs (arguably the most accomplished high altitude mountaineer in history) sits 3 rows behind me at Seahawks games. First time I saw him i couldn''t help but tell him how amazed and impressed i was with his feats. He seemed suprised to be recognized.. pretty cool
This whole everest thing amazes me for some reason..
