Excerpt: Stuart Alexander "Alex" Lowe (December 24, 1958, Frederick, Maryland October 5, 1999, Shishapangma, Tibet), was widely considered one of his generation's finest all-around mountaineers prior to his October 5, 1999 death in a massive slab avalanche on Shishapangma (Xixabangma) in Tibet.

Lowe yelled a warning to his team, all of whom ran.
