Everest Picture Timeline Part 2

Ok So this is a baby yak on the trail .....how cute!!


This is the top of the Cho La. We had great weather...well for half of it anyway. The pass is 5,300 meters which is like 17,500 ft or soomething..


Me in the snow at the top of the pass....


Fun little mtn peaking out!


Now to Everest Base Camp. This is the Super Sherpa food tent. Quite nice eh?



This is the outside of the communications tent. Set up with internet. Radios to communicate on the mtn etc.


Here are two of my Sherpa friends! Apa Sherpa is on the left and Lakpa on the right. They are both world record holders for summiting Everest. It was amazing to see them at Base Camp. They left the next day and summited two days later. Amazing!!!



This is the start of the climb. Through this massive maze of ice!

After I left Base Camp I finally got my first little view of Everest. That black peak with the snow blowing off the top. That my friends is the tallest point on the Earth!

This is the view away from Everest from on top of a peak called Kala Patar. It means black rock in tibetan and is the best close view point of Everest..

This is the elevation of the Kala Patar


Everest from the KP.

The next day we went back to Base Camp. And this helicopter was taking a load of a crashed copter right where we happened to be walking....cool...

View of Base Camp....a maze of tents, ice, and disease...
