	Marcus Schmuck - Telegraph
		Marcus Schmuck, who died on August 21 aged 80, led the 1957 expedition to Broad Peak in the Karakoram; at 8,047 metres, the world's twelfth highest mountain; the expedition was revolutionary at the time and set the standard for future advances in mountaineering on the highest peaks.
		So successful were Schmuck's efforts that they could soon afford to take a third person to help carry the loads.
		Schmuck and Wintersteller, who were the stronger, reached a col below what was believed to be the summit first; but Schmuck, in an incident which typified the man, waited for Buhl, who was having an off-day, so that they could climb the last metres together.

	Marcus Schmuck \| Obituaries \| Guardian Unlimited
		Schmuck was one of the first two men to reach the summit, but his moment of glory was overshadowed by the death of his team-member Hermann Buhl, then the most famous mountaineer in Europe.
		Schmuck, on the other hand, remained an amateur, who was only interested in raising funds for trips he could not afford.
		It was not in Schmuck's nature to imitate the large-scale expeditions of the 1950s, relying, as they did, on teams of porters carrying tons of supplies, not just to the bottom of the peak but to well-stocked camps on the mountain.

	Marcus Schmuck - Independent Online Edition > Obituaries
		To his obvious delight, Marcus Schmuck last April found himself the subject of a warm standing ovation at the annual International Mountaineering Literature Festival at Bretton Hall, near Wakefield.
		Schmuck cut his teeth on the limestone walls of the Dachstein, not far from his birthplace at Maria Alm, and in the Wilder Kaiser, testing ground for all ambitious climbers in German-speaking Europe.
		Schmuck's 1958 book Broad Peak 8047m was never translated into English and gradually the accepted version of the expedition became that told in translation by Buhl, who had written copiously while on Broad Peak, and by Diemberger, an engaging lecturer as well as accomplished writer.

		As for clearing camps, this version by Buhl gives the impression that Schmuck and Wintersteller were not pulling their weight, and that he and Diemberger had to do an unfair share of the work.
		This was further aggravated by Schmuck and Wintersteller's anger that Buhl and Diemberger had not cleared their gear on their descent, and that they had taken unjustifiable risk in going to the summit so late in the day.
		On seeing the account when it was published, believing it was what he had written, Wintersteller and Schmuck contacted Sale to register their sense of betrayal in that appeared was not consistent with what they had told him, nor with what he had said he would write.
