Discuss the pros and cons of Sandy Hill Pittman's presence on the ill-fated Mount Everest expedition. What, if anything, might you have done differently?

What will be an ideal response?


Pittman's presence on the mountain was clearly a mixed blessing. On the one
hand, she was the conduit through which Scott Fischer's Mountain Madness
Guided Expeditions would gain favorable publicity. However, her presence put
pressure -- real or imagined -- on Fischer to put publicity concerns ahead of
safety concerns.
