Exploring…
The thought popped into my head the other day – I wonder if you can explore Mount Everest on Google Maps? The answer is yes. Although the Google Earth version is even better – it’s got the camps marked.
I was surprised to zoom in and not see evidence of human presence – I gather the camps are like giant garbage dumps. I’ve seen pictures where human beings form giant conga lines to the summit. We won’t even go into the famous bodies that have been there for decades.
I mean, you can see our car in the drive in Google Maps. That should be enough resolution to pick out a tent city.
Anyway, I gather the Nepalese government has been making an effort to clean up some of the trash and corpses in recent years, so good luck with that.
That’s it – just a quickie from me. I’m going to a party tonight! Have a good weekend…
