Mt. Everest Photographed at the Highest Resolution

This is an amazing picture of the Khumbu glacier and Mt. Everest that someone shared with me; zoom near the area I have marked below to see the base came and also to get a sense of the grandeur.  Someone told me that David Breashears compiled this from some 400 photographs!



My collegue forwarded this link to a friend who helped spot a few climbers (see image below). There are many climbers to the left of the arrow and the top arrow is Camp 4!

If you are like me and don't know which is the summit then refer this image http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/everest/resources/basecampmap.html
Explore the entire site http://www.glacierworks.org/ - there are amazing pictures.
