	Everest Summiter: Scott Fischer
		As a young teenager Scott Fischer went to Wyoming to spend a few weeks as a participant on a wilderness course with the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS), his life would never be the same.
		Although Scott started off his climbing career with the reputation of being a bit flamboyant and a risk taker, by the time he had started his family and begun Mountain Madness he had become much more conservative.
		Scott’s expedition group did reach the summit before the Everest storm of 1996 struck the mountain; however it remains a mystery why Scott did not turn his group or at least himself around before it was too late.

	NOLS - The Leader:
		Viesturs and Fischer, whose relationship before this expedition was that of two mountain guides competing for the same Pacific Northwest clientele, now began to hit their stride as a team.
		We at NOLS might like to attribute some of Scott's success to his association with the school: the mentorship of his early teachers like Tom Warren, the opportunities offered by and the inspiration of Paul Petzoldt, and his long career as a respected instructor (he plans to work a course next summer!).
		Fischer has a reputation for what climber's call "pushing the edge." In earlier years his attitude towards climbing might have best been termed reckless.

		Krakauer also failed to report that he had interviewed Fischer's publicist, Jane Bromet, who had also told him that it was Fischer's plan that Boukreev should descend ahead of the clients.

	Salon Wanderlust \| Everest controversy: Weston DeWalt's latest response
		Jane Bromet on two separate occasions volunteered that Scott Fischer had a plan (see previous postings and "The Climb") for Boukreev to descend ahead of his clients in the event of problems on the descent.
		Bromet was a trusted confidant, someone with access to Scott's most closely held concerns and thoughts, and "the plan," according to my March 1997 interview with Bromet, was but one of many things Fischer shared with her but withheld from the other members of the expedition.
		I have never alleged that the first exchange "never occurred." There was no ulterior motive in not reporting that exchange, because Boukreev's position was that Fischer's and his agreement, that Boukreev should descend as rapidly as possible, superceded his comment to Fischer that he was going down with Adams.
