Mount Everest and the Khumbu glacier. It is the first part of the climb
from base camp to camp 2 and it takes 11 rope ladders to climb it.
One deserves a good hug after attaining this breathtaking (literally) peek.
Checking my GPS... I'm there. Note the elevation; I couldn't hardly believe

Small boots that have come a long way. The right pair of boots was blue

Descending Kalla Patar during the sun-set. Only Nuptse, Everest (in the

The light line rises.
Finally the optical illusion is shattered. Only Everest remains lit.
