“Party At Everest Base Camp”
by Kevin Fedarko

“In addition to presenting a rather grotesque perversion of pretty much everything that alpinism is supposed to represent, an experimental theater for the sort of behavior that any self-respecting mountaineer finds repugnant, Everest Base Camp also happens to be, and I’m afraid there’s just no other way to put this, an absolute fricking blast.” 

Wicked interesting article. Gotta love the folks at Outside.
