>>>In any case if the grand master KC lowered his moral standards and ate a steak SYL woulda been his...

...maybe ...I rekon his biggest oversight in the whole deal was not setting up a mini camp near the route ...instead of expending heaps of psychic energy getting from the Pines ....withe a head full of doubts and trepidations ......Claw hit ' ticking weather ' which finally got him up Slopin Sleazin ...Kim oughta have ... .....HAD A STEAK ??????

K-man was a flat mate with Kim in Melbornme ....I would love to hear what K has to say about Kims cooking/eating habits ...

I once red that a female climber stopped having periods because she only ate lentils ...

What WERE the leading climbers at Araps eating in the 1980s ? ...

I dunno if diet really makes much difference ... at a Doug Scott slide show on the Himalays...one punter asked Doug wot he did to get fit ..." lots of fish and chips before you go then get lean on the walk to base camp ..."

I saw HB eating all sorts of greasey delights at Araps years ago ...didnt do him any harm ...

Claw ...in his book ... reckons Mark Moorhead ate next to nothng ...
