This material was originally part of the "George Mallory's Watch" video, but I broke it out as the Watch video is far too long. The following are the videos that are related to the "Watch" video, but will also be released before the final video sort of sums things up:
Last Step But One
You Call This a Storm?
Everything Wrong with Conrad Anker and David Robert's Assessment

The Wildest Dream is an excellent source of information about "Cottie" as well as other people in George Mallory's life. The photo of Cottie, Mallory and Jack (Cottie's brother) is from that book, for which I claim "fair use." www.amazon.com... (Why does Amazon list this as a "biology"?)

Dave Hahn interview: • Finding George Mallory... . I'll feature more about Dave Hahn in the upcoming videos as he is a humble guy who was not shouting his story out to everyone who would listen. His climbs have a lot of lessons for the M&I climb, and I'll get into some of those. As a note, Dave Hahn and I share a summit date -- he was climbing the South, me the North.
