Abstract

Prakash explains how it has taken doctors in Kathmandu a while to understand the physiology behind altitude illness. These recordings were made on a trek in the spring of 2011 up to Mount Everest Base Camp. The recordings span a wide variety of topics from making and drinking chang to the work of Mount Everest's 'ice fall doctors'.
