Everest 2026: Garrett Madison Podcast from Camp 2, 2 More Deaths

<p>A long-standing tradition is to connect with Garrett Madison, founder of Madison Mountaineering, on an expedition. I caught up with Garrett at Everest Camp 2, 21,500 feet, during their summit push. They are targeting May 25, just a few days away. I wanted to talk to him about icefall conditions and delays, the changing rules around the jet stream, and more. I hope you enjoy. We had more summits overnight, including yet another multi-summit record.</p><p><br></p><p>Climb On!</p><p>Alan</p><p>Memories are Everything</p><p><br></p><p>https://www.alanarnette.com/blog/2026/05/22/everest-2026-garrett-madison-podcast-from-camp-2-2-more-deaths/</p>
