In 1921, 1922 and 1924 the English were intent on conquering the "Third Pole" as the summit of Everest was known. By the third expedition one climber, George Mallory, knew more about the mountain and the vicissitudes of altitude. Yet on June 4th, 1924 he and his partner, Sandy Irvine, disappeared into the mists somewhere near the summit of Everest. Join climber Conrad Anker for an evening's journey into the mystery of Mallory and Irvine. On May 1st, 1999, 75 years after the disappearance new light was shed onto the mystery when the body of Qeorgo Mallory was discovered at 27,000 feet on Mt. Everest. Did they make the summit? Conrad Anker, U of U '83, has climbed in South America, Alaska, Antarctica, the Arctic and the Himalayas.

The split would significantly increase the Utes' chances for finish that Jones thinks the team is capable of. "The split is tough to I but think get, they can do it," nd Jones said. Jones summarized his expectations of the women when he said, "I will be disappointed if we do not finish better than sixth." Overall, he feels that both teams, after good regular-seaso- n competition and this last week off, seem to be ready for the important weekend tourney. "Everyone's healthy and feeling good," Jones said. "They have no more hard workouts. There is a good team morale." Following the MWC Championship on Saturday, the Ute'runners will individually try to qualify at the NCAA Mountain Regional Qualifying Meet on Nov. n in Ogden. |
