Well,the new climbing season on Mount Everest is just getting started.For the last few years,I have been going to http://www.everestnews.com/ on a daily basis to follow the different teams progress.Many of the teams put in daily updates and some do live reports by internet.This sight is a GREAT way to keep up with the tragedies and triumphs of climbing the highest mountain in the world!!Hope some of you check it out and enjoy it as much as I do.

Mount Everest Is an awsome site, it is one of the 7 wonders of the world. So many couragous people have climbed that mountain and came home heroes, but there are many men who have never come home. It is amazing how a mountain can temp a man/woman to temp life endiing risks just to reach the top.

Added to the severley low temperatures,the winds of Everest can reach over 100 miles an hour making it almost impossible to even stand at the level.But somehow people continue to risk the climb of their life so they can say they have been "to the top of the world".
