Be interesting to see which slant they take - Krakauer's or Boukreev's?
or Graham Ratcliffe
A Day To Die For Uber-details but he finds that the so-called "sudden storm" was predicted, shared with some teams but not all, and even some of those who knew went up anyway, damn the torpedoes.
One of the survivors told me about 5 yrs after the disaster that she was told it really was a sudden quirk of nature, but she was a client and not privy to some of the leaders decision making. A Day To Die For goes into all of that.
We all know that mountains make their own weather, orographic lifting, adiabatic lapse rate, jet stream winds, supercooling, etc, etc, but maybe there was some of both; predicted storm that was ignored, AND worse conditions than anyone would have predicted. Armchair quarterbacking at this point.
