Photos from the icefall

Here are some pics from the famous Khumbu Icefall, one of the most dangerous parts of the mountain.

my last photo from the icefall – we took a break to take our crampons off. Dad was very sick and was getting his oxygen changed. I was extremely exhausted and had a very sore throat and lungs
