DarkSteven and I were TOTALLY correct!  Come to Denver (about 1/2 way up.) Spend 3 or 4 days with us, then go to the Bad Dog Bar.  <OOPS!  That's where we will take you.... then you go to Dog bar..... LOL!>

Status: offline 		The Dog Bar was great, though there weren't enough dogs there.  I think I only saw 2 and they were both outside!  I'm not so sure that it's true that dogs aren't discriminated against there.

Status: offline 		Here is a nice image of Everest. The routes are littered with bodies of guys who didn't make it. Tragedy usually strikes on the way down when climbers are exhausted, and mistakes easier to make.

The three stars indicate the Three Steps. The first sometimes called Hillary's Step.

Bodies are often spoken of as if they were sign posts- " Turn left when you get to Green Boots" etc

Status: offline 		Thats a dead guy.

Probably died of HACO, or HAPO. He knew something was wrong. Probably hallucinating. He eventually lay down. There was nothing else to do. Probably alone and out of oxygen. That place is now known as Green Boots Cave. It's not a cave, just an edge with a little canopy.

He was way inside the death zone. This begins at about 16000 feet I think. He sleeps somewhere close to the 3 steps.
