I have been following Mountain Madness with some interest. A couple of years ago I started running into a couple that I really like. I have never seen them below an elevation of 11,000 feet and I have never made plans to meet them in the mountains - we just run into each other. Last summer they did a climb of Kilimajaro by one on the non-standard routes. Appearently they were the only 2 members of their group to reach the summit by that route.
Anyway, if you go to www.mountainmadness.com and click on the daily dispatch link for their Everest climbers and trekkers you will see my firends names on the trekkers list; Didier Sourbes and Wendy Dean.
They should be at the Everest Base camp (south side) now having climbed Kala Pattar a few days ago.
