I don't know whether this has been posted already but there is a superb ultra high resolution photo (gigapixel) of EBC at :

Khumbu Glacier - Mt. Everest - The Glaciers of the Himalayas

I tried to find where VF landed as per his video but failed! Nice to see a video as well as pictures, VF - I trust it was someone else holding the camera?:cool:

O&H,

Its there all right! From the default view pan straight in and down a bit.

There is a prominent line of yellow tents with a blue one amongst them just shy of the glacier flow.

Its towards the camera from there.

Landing up there = "cojones" :D

eXtra strong coffee

Ah, tractors and helicopters are alike in that they both appear to defy the laws of physics. Helicopters by remaining airborne, and tractors by moving the immovable.

I do hope those munchkins in the picture didn't just smoke that packet of cigarettes!
