This is an account of that other 1953 Himalayan expedition. Roberts and his three teammates made the first ascent of Chamar (7000m), visited a large part of Nepal previously unvisited by Europeans, and even brought back a bear. First published as a newspaper article, this has previously unpublished color photos.
