for anyone interested in mountain climbing or Mt. Everest, http://www.everestnews.com has daily updates on the various expeditions and a lot of other material. very cool if ou're interested in this. Mt. Everest actually juts into the jet stream, and the only time it can be climbed is when the jet stream subsides for about three weeks this time of the year.

Hey neat site! I love that Everest stuff, been into for years. I usually read http://www.mountainzone.com/ myself. I was reading Krakauer's online reports from Outside before the disaster, that was a trip. I pre-ordered Into Thin Air before it was published.

Anyone know when the next Hillary expedition takes place, to try to find the camera?

here'sone of the khombu icefall taken yesterday
