Everest Mystery

Everest stories from the source — told by someone who has stood on its summit and uncovered its mysteries.

Whether it’s the mysterious discovery of Sandy Irvine’s boot nearly a century after his disappearance on Mount Everest, or a daring high-altitude rescue on Annapurna that defied the odds, Everest Mystery is about more than mountaineering. It’s about truth, survival, and legacy.

Thom Dharma Pollard — adventure filmmaker and high-altitude cameraman on the 1999 expedition that discovered George Mallory — has filmed Everest documentaries for National Geographic, PBS, Disney and beyond. These are stories shaped by lived experience on the mountain itself.

Here you’ll find climbing disasters, unsolved mysteries, historic expeditions, and real survival stories. In a world that insists we live in the worst of times, this is a place for curiosity, hope, and meaning beyond the summit.
