Kingdoms Of Experience - Everest, the Unclimbed Ridge (Paperback, Main)


In March 1985, Mal Duff led a new expedition to conquer Everest by the unclimbed north-east ridge. The last attempt by a Chris Bonington team had ended in failure and the tragic deaths of two great climbers, Joe Tasker and Pete Boardman.
