            RIP. Edmund hillary was an inspiration. Long live his memory and continuation of the infrastructure he set up to help the Nepalese people.

It’s written by Wilfred Noyce, one of the team, who himself broke the initial altitude record during the expedition before the summit attempts, etc. Good read and photos…
