Mallory & Irvine: A Bloody Load for Climbing

Review of the oxygen system used by Mallory and Irvine in the climb of Mount Everest in 1924. Also looks at climb times of Ed Viesturs and Eric Simonsons 1987 climb up the Norton Couloir and exiting the small gully. Compares times for Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary from 1953 to get comparable times above the Third Step.
