"Return to Thin Air—Without Jon Krakauer?"
Eat the Press piece about Jon Krakauer's non-participation in Outside magazine's 10th Anniversary issue revisiting the May 1996 tragedy on Everest during which 11 climbers (including two experienced expedition leaders) died. Krakauer's original Outside piece, "Into Thin Air," was expanded into a best-selling book that made Krakauer a household name and ignited a continuing debate about the ethics of guided climbs up the world's highest peak.
