Though she never scaled a mountain herself, Ms. Hawley endeared herself to many climbers. To maintain accuracy in her records, she grilled mountaineers before and after summit attempts, traveling to their hotels to ask what they had seen at the top and to catch the occasional fibber. She conducted more than 15,000 interviews.) |
