Lost on Everest and Expedition Everest, will premiere on Tuesday, June 30 on Nat Geo. The two programs complement the National Geographic magazine’s July issue about the mountain’s unique history.
Lost on Everest investigates what happened to explorers Andrew “Sandy” Irvine and George Leigh Mallory, who disappeared on June 8, 1924, while attempting the mountain’s first summit. The special, which will air without commercials, is led by journalist, climber, and adventurer Mark Synnott, with National Geographic photographer, climber, and mountaineer Renan Ozturk.
