I saw on the news this morning vision of former SOG chief Paul Carr's friends and family placing a plaque amongst the broken grey stuff at the top of Taipan. This was the guy who died (of a heart attack I believe) on Cho Oyu a few months ago while training for a fund-raising ascent of Everest.
Somewhat amusingly, they described the free abseil after the plaque ceremony down Serpentine as "a harrowing ordeal". It's all relative I guess.
I can think of at least 2 other memorial plaques at Arapiles. No opinions of my own (I don't know where I stand), but what do you all think of this practice ? |
