The case of Mt. Everest focuses on two commercial expeditions, Adventure Consultants and Mountain Madness, and the tragic event on May 10, 1996. These two commercial expeditions were lead by Rob Hall and Scott Fischer, and were consisted of 20 members. Both leaders were experienced climbers, but due to several factors, the expedition resulted into five deaths including Hall and Fischer. The event has thought managers to evaluate the importance of leadership together with its internal and external factors that managers should consider to survive in the high risk business world.

I decided for my project that I would spend the time researching Mount Baker. Mount Baker is located about 30 miles east of Bellingham, Washington. The Cascade Mountain range extends over 140 miles between Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, Canada. Mount Baker is a Stratovolcano, which is also known as a composite volcano, it is also the highest peak in the North Cascades and the fifth highest in the Cascade mountain range (Volcano Hazards Programs). Cities located near Mount Baker include Abbotsford, British Columbia and Bellingham, Washington. The closest stream to the mountain is the Nooksack River which runs near the west side of the mountain. On the southwest side of the mountain is Baker Lake. I chose this area because it is a very

The first recorded person in history to ascend Mt Druitt, an area in the relegated public squalor of Western Sydney, has also successfully reached the summit.

There has been big changes in the U.S. Since the turn of the century. I moved to Houston 4 years ago from Dallas and since then where I live in Houston has been changing every day. Its so remarkable within 5 years time a new community has been formed and its getting too crowed every where. New schools, hospitals, stores and roads are coming up every corner, when we think its crazy but actually the demand is getting higher. There is everything near you to meet our needs. But the traffic is getting too much in Houston, I think government can do better in that area and make less crowed.

For my place narrative assignment, I chose to focus on a place that I not only visit frequently, but truly appreciate: Mount Douglas. This is a place I value not only for its beauty, but for the calmness it allows me to experience as a result of being part of nature. As it turns out, this has been the location of many important histories, dating back hundreds of years, and is still making history today. This history is significant both ecologically, and culturally, and is something I have enjoyed learning about. Through researching this place, and its surrounding area I have come to learn its importance branches far greater than its importance to me.

Growing up by Mount Newton I had never heard the First Nation History to the mountain. The story of Mount Newton is that an elder gathered the community together to tell them that they would no longer be safe in their homeland because the tides were rising. He warned them that they had to temporarily move up to the top of the Mount Newton to avoid the high tide. The community listen to the elder and gathered up their canoes and belonging and headed to the summit. As the sea waters began to rise up higher than the top of Mount Newton the community members had to tie a rope between their canoes and an arbutus tree and float above the land. The First Nation’s were floating in their canoes when a raven arrived to tell them the flood would soon be over. The raven traditionally in

Rocky Mount, North Carolina acts as an inhabitant of two of North Carolina’s 100 counties, Nash and Edgecombe. The various drugs available to the citizens of this city range from illegal prescription pills to harder, synthetic drugs such as Heroin. Though each drug relates to one another regardless of legal status, there are also levels of legality, relating to penalties as well. Some of the concerns in which Heroin is focused include areas such as the history of Heroin within the location, drug raids, arrests, age range of involvement, and treatment availability. Each category being explored plays a larger role than just the individual components, where the multiple instances create a growing epidemic among the city’s population.

Mount Tambora is known as one of the most dangerous volcanoes in history. It is recognized to have one of the most hazardous eruptions, the 1816 eruption, with the death toll of 72,000 and more people.

Many know the story of ANZAC Cottage in Mount Hawthorn, built in one day for a returned wounded soldier. However, did you know it is only one of many similar projects Australia wide? Other houses were built and repairs carried out for the widows and mothers of servicemen. This support on the home front for those affected by war an extension of the mateship forged on the

On May 18, 1980 an earthquake caused Mount St Helen to erupt. It is one of the most significant geological events in the U.S. during the 20th century. The amount of energy output that day was like 400 million tons of TNT. The eruption caused many waves on the Spirit Lake that stripped the forest from the slope adjacent to the lake. This created an enormous log mat that was made of millions of prone floating trunks that occupied about two square miles of the lake. This event gives us a rare opportunity to study things that scientists have said take thousands of
