More from the Mallory and Irvine Team 2005

Team 2 and team 3 have moved up the mountain. The goal is to film and photograph certain areas of the mountain. In 2006, there is plan to send our own team back again. Plans are already underway. We expect to pay 90% of the costs out of our pockets, as we have so far. However, Sponsors are welcome and needed.

How are the conditions up high? The wind is variable. Walking wounded climbers are almost the normal. We will be fine. Maybe even get a little searching in... See if we can find a needle...

We return to Mount Everest in search of an answer.
