EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in 1922, we find English climbers George Leigh Mallory and Andrew "Sandy" Irvine making their valiant attempt to reach the summit of Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. Mallory, wearing a thick fur-lined coat and a felt hat, and Irvine, in a heavy woolen sweater and a peaked cap, are seen here at an altitude of approximately 8,300 meters, aided by the use of oxygen apparatus. The two climbers are making their third attempt on Everest, having previously failed in their 1921 expedition. The use of oxygen equipment, a relatively new innovation in mountaineering at the time, was a crucial factor in their decision to make another attempt. The oxygen apparatus, which consisted of a cylinder filled with liquid oxygen that was heated to convert it into gas, was carried in backpacks and supplied the climbers with much-needed oxygen through a mask. Despite their progress, Mallory and Irvine were ultimately unsuccessful in their quest to become the first climbers to reach the summit of Everest. They were last seen alive on the North Face of the mountain, near the Second Step, and were presumed to have perished in the extreme conditions. Their bodies were not discovered until 1999, over 77 years after their tragic demise. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the determination and courage of these early mountaineers, who risked their lives in pursuit of the ultimate climbing challenge. The Himalayas, with their towering peaks and harsh conditions, continue to be a source of inspiration and fascination for climbers and adventurers around the world.
