Pathologist defeats all odds, survives deadly blizzard on Mount Everest
WAIKOLOA, Hawaii — A pathologist who fought all odds to survive a deadly blizzard on Mount Everest in 1996 shares his story of survival during the keynote lecture at the Hawaiian Eye. In May 1996, Beck Weathers traveled to Mount Everest with a group of climbers who were guided by Rob Hall of Adventure Consultants. On the night of May 10, 1996, a blizzard descended upon the group and forced the climbers to fight for their lives to stay warm in the freezing cold.
