expedition">their attempt of 8–9 June 1924</a>. Key objectives included finding Irvine's body and retrieving a camera that might hold proof of their summit success. Jochen Hemmleb, after reviewing historical records, pinpointed a search area based on a 1975 Chinese expedition report. The expedition was instigated by British climber <a href="/wiki/Graham_Hoyland" title="Graham Hoyland">Graham Hoyland</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-:0_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was organised by regular Everest expedition leader <a href="/wiki/Eric_Simonson_(mountaineer)" title="Eric Simonson (mountaineer)">Eric Simonson</a> and advised by researcher Jochen Hemmleb, with a team of climbers from the United States, United Kingdom and Germany. </p><p>Funded by WGBH/Boston's Nova series and the BBC, the expedition included mountaineers Eric Simonson, Conrad Anker, Dave Hahn, and others. On 1 May 1999, Anker discovered Mallory's body at 26,760 ft (8,156 m), well-preserved by the harsh conditions. The body showed significant injuries consistent with a fall. Various artifacts were recovered, but the camera remained missing. </p><p>The discovery of Mallory's body raised intriguing questions, especially given the absence of a photo of his wife, which he had intended to leave at the summit, suggesting he might have reached it. Subsequent searches in 2001, 2004, and 2007 aimed to locate Irvine and further evidence but yielded limited results until a successful 2024 search. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Preparations">Preparations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Mallory_and_Irvine_Research_Expedition&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Preparations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The expedition's objective was to search for <a href="/wiki/Evidence" title="Evidence">evidence</a> of the <a href="/wiki/1924_British_Mount_Everest_expedition" title="1924 British Mount Everest expedition">1924 British Mount Everest expedition</a> and obtain information about the high point attained by Mallory and Irvine, which may have either supported or refuted whether or not they reached the summit.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBeckwith2000375_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBeckwith2000375-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-mystery-of-mallory_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mystery-of-mallory-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The team hoped in particular to find a <a href="/wiki/Camera" title="Camera">camera</a> on Irvine's body which, had the pair been successful, should have contained a picture of the summit. </p><p>After he had re-examined the historical record of Mount Everest North Face expeditions, Jochen Hemmleb recognised that the only seemingly factual information about Mallory and Irvine—other than <a href="/wiki/Artifact_(archaeology)" title="Artifact (archaeology)">artefacts</a> such as the <a href="/wiki/Ice_axe" title="Ice axe">ice axe</a> found by <a href="/wiki/Percy_Wyn-Harris" title="Percy Wyn-Harris">Percy Wyn-Harris</a> on the expedition led by <a href="/wiki/Hugh_Ruttledge" title="Hugh Ruttledge">Hugh Ruttledge</a> in 1933—was during a 1975 Chinese expedition.
