Part 14 of Everyday Everest, my new Podcast series, drops today with chapters 43, 44, and 45. I'll continue my annual coverage as usual. Based on my 2020 Virtual Everest series, Everyday Everest follows a fictional team of nine climbers and their personal Sherpas from leaving home to trekking to base camp, acclimatizing, and finally, on their summit push, returning home.

"Mingma heard the radio crackle, "Mingma, where are you?" It was Dawa monitoring the team from the South Col with three other Climbing Sherpas. "On the Ridge above the Balcony," Mingma told the Sidar." Climb On! Alan Memories are Everything
