Everest: It's Summit Day!

Tuesday, May 16, 2006
The weather window on Everest has made it possible for a number of teams to make a push for the summit today from either side of the mountain. You can read about a number of expeditions at Outside Online or at the always reliable MountEverest.net, who also has this story about Tomas Olsson and Tormod Granheim, who not only summited Everest, but then skied back down! Now that's crazy!
