ENLARGE!
Time to look at some of the seriously big mountains on the Everest Trek in Nepal.
Also to acknowledge the achievements of Sir Edmund Hillary the New Zealander who, with SherpaTenzing Norgay, was the first to climb Everest - and who died yesterday. Hillary is venerated by the Sherpa people of the Khumbu region for the immense amount of work he has done in building schools, hospitals and bridges here.
For a whole set of Ama Dablam, probably the most awe inspiring mountain in the Khumbu, see my previous
page.
