To David – my first companion on the hills

The hills are beautiful. They are beautiful in line and form and colour; they are beautiful in purity, in their simplicity and in their freedom; they bring repose, contentment and good health.

F.S. Smythe

1930s Everest pioneer

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank Pam Boswell for preparing some early drafts before I had learned to use a word processor; Juliet Ryde for checking the whole draft; and Don Sargeant for drawing the original maps. Most of the photographs are my own, but I am also indebted to the following for permission to use some of their pictures: Steve Lewis, Kevin Richardson and Marion Teal.
