Interview with Miss Hawley

In front of Hotel Blue Horizon

Miss Hawley, Chad and David

 The call from Miss Hawley came at our hotel within a hour of arriving in Kathmandu with a appointment to be interviewed the following day at her home. The next afternoon her punctual driver arrived in the in the iconic 63 baby blue Volkswagen Beetle and drove us over to her home and office. After making us comfortable she got to work asking pointed questions that revealed her great knowledge of Himalayan mountaineering.


Those of us who love Himalayan climbing owe a dept of gratitude for her many years of interviews and research that make up the awesome Himalayan Data Base
