[QUOTE="wihil, post: 292369, member: 6487"] Fun stuff. You can see the low camp, mid camp just past the cwm and icefall, but there's no high camp set for the summit. They're probably making their intermediate runs in that photo as there's no established peak camp in that photo. They'll make that middle run a few times to gain tolerance to the altitude, before finally heading up for the summit. Follow the little line of bodys up the face and you'll see the line of horizontal small tents just to the right of the draw a little under half way up. They're tucked into the shadows. Other interesting tidbit, you can't see the Hillary Step in that photo which is the route that almost everyone takes up to the summit. Always amazed me how something so barren and hostile could be so beautiful. 8) (I'd do it if I didn't have the family) [/QUOTE]
