[High Altitude] Climbing and Sex
Eric Hirst
It's not a very important one.
What is the highest peak in the world that has shaked and groaned
under a summit coital event?

From the sun times:
"In a recient court case, two climbers plea-bargained from a
charge of manslaughter to a reduced charge of having great
sex, in a case where 3 climbers were killed by an avalanch started

Summit?
How about high camps?
It is possible that a high camp on some peak may set a higher altitude
record than the highest summit, as participants would more likely be too
tired and cold to perform or have the desire on a summit whereas the
required energy and warmth are to be founds while inb a high camp tent.
When I read, "The Last Step" about the 1978 K2 Expedition, it seemed it
may have subtly hinted at the possibility of thi s event between 22,000
and 25,000 feet. There two or three women on this expedition and the
relationship tensions were quite strained!

Well, the cards are pouring in. Or at least one did, from
someone who wished to remain anonymous. Here it is:
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Ray Genet alleged that he did it on McKinley. This was reported
in Jonathon Waterman's book "In the shadow of Denali". One presumes
that it wasn't a solo ascent...
It seems to me that a peak nearer the equator would have been
more appropriate for the world record attempt; "blue balls" could
take on a whole new meaning in this context.
(...and I'll be damned if I'm going to post something like this :-)

I read somewhere (I think in Geoff Tabin's book) that Lydia Brady
claimed to have done it on top of some 8000m peak.

Wonder if she used O2? Hmmm... hope they stayed "tied in."
Makes you wonder just how many other applications of a harness that
you can drop the leg loops on (while *REMAINING* "tied-in") that
you have not really discovered yet, eh?

Have problems with frostbite ever been mentioned?

I should have asked sooner. Who is Lydia Brady?

Maybe you should publish something about this subject in your tech tips?

Oh geeze...let me rake over the damaged brain cells here for a
minute...ummm...if you were to read Geoff Tabin's book...what the
hell is the name of that thing...Blind Corners (?)...he mentions a woman
from Australia (I believe...) that had the goal of having sex on top of
Mt. Everest. He went on to mention that she really was just looking
for qualified parties (as in, can you get up it and can you get it up)
and didn't really give a darn about looks, smell, or any of that other
stuff you might think about in a less harsh environment.
I think he said that she actually pulled it off...that would make the
altitude record (for those not actually in an aircraft lavatory) 29,028'
(or whatever the altitude of Everest is these days...).
Can you imagine the condom (IF she used one, probably not...) ad you
could come up with from this event ? Might give the Vasaline Intensive
Care people a new angle too... :-)

Er, um, I assume they were using protection ? ! ?
The mind boggles at the possibilities.

Charlie Houston's book on Altitude Physiology (Going Higher, an excellent
book in its own right) makes mention of a woman who became pregnant above
26,000ft. No names were given...

A New Zealander who climbed Everest sans oxygen and semi-solo a few
years ago. There was some controversy over whether she summitted or
not. Now she happily sport climbs back here in NZ. I just heard
she's off to do some guiding in the Himalaya soon, and then join
another expedition.
