1999 Memorial
In November 1999 a brass plaque was erected in Clough's memory at Annapurna base camp. The text of the plaque reads:
IAN CLOUGH
The plaque was commissioned by Kelvin Kent, who had been base camp manager on the expedition. An earlier memorial at the site is an inscription reading "Ian Clough, killed May 30, 1970", cut into rock shortly after Clough's death with an accompanying message in a local language.

Famous quotes containing the word memorial:
“I hope there will be no effort to put up a shaft or any monument of that sort in memory of me or of the other women who have given themselves to our work. The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
