Truly amazing. Yup, you can see some just getting started at the bottom and all up along the thing. So cool.

you can even see a few climbers scattered throughout the icefall. Really gives a good perspecitive on how massive Everest is.

Wow! Thanks for sharing. Anyone know what camp or village the stone buildings with the blue roofs are? Visible in the center bottom of the screen if you pan all the way right and zoom in.

I think I've spotted a pair of climbers on the north ridge route also. With a little searching maybe somebody can find Irvine. :)
