LOCATION:
Mount Everest, Nepal
WHAT HAPPENED:
While climbing Mount Everest, George Leigh-Mallory and Andrew C. Irvine
were less than a thousand feet from the summit when a swirling mist of
wind driven snow hid them from the view of the telescope which was being
used to follow their progress from the base camp below, and were never
seen or heard from again.
