To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
[If they are never found] K2 still remains a greater monument than man could ever build to four such brave and courageous men.
—CLIFFORD WARREN SMITH, Dudley Wolfe’s brother Dudley Wolfe standing on the glacier below Broad Peak, K2’s 8,000-meter neighbor, on the last day of the 330-mile march into base camp. (Courtesy of the George C. Sheldon Family) For over sixty years, the puzzle of why Fritz left Dudley and in what condition and why Wolfe and the Sherpas died on K2 developed into one of Hima...layan climbing’s greatest mysteries. Did the Sherpas reach Dudley and then all four die on their descent? Did the Sherpas regain Camp VII only to find Dudley already dead? Or were the Sherpas killed by an avalanche before they regained Camp VII, leaving Dudley waiting hours, then days, until his body gave out?
While we will never know exactly how long Dudley survived, we know he most likely died alone in his tent, which was eventually brought down to the glacier by a massive avalanche and found sixty-three years later.
