Read a good book a few years ago. About a group of women climbers that set out to climb Annapurna. One of the high ones. Good story, Name of the book, "A Woman's Place is on Top." One of the gals died on the climb, HAPE was the cause.
ps: this is not non-sequitor. Aunty M brought up the positional topic. Or perhaps a better title would be 'labor of love.'
