James Bond Style Mountaineering Expedition

August 16th, 2007 Wade

Another of my favorite blogs, the Adventure Blog has posted an ESPN video about an amazing mountaineering expedition in the 1960s which was actually a spy mission gone wrong. It’s so wild it’s almost too crazy to have been made up. The US government denies this of course, but the climbers on the expedition have come out and a book has now been written about the events.

Definitely a great story. I highly recommend the book. It’s like something right out of James Bond.

I saw a show about this on tv. Pretty cool stuff. I should look for the book.
