IMPORTANT: The web address for the reading has changed:

The article you are reading for this class is definitely not like the others you have read. It was written for a commercial magazine aimed at people who like outdoor activities, rather than psychologists, psychology students or decision researchers.

There is really only one question for this reading: What have you learned in this course that is relevant to the decisions made by the Everest climbers? Come prepared to discuss your answer in class; there is room for you to make notes below.
