On the South, only one climber died the whole season, as less snow was on Everest than ever before. How soon we forget how dangerous Everest is, especially for those you go first. We did not talk about those who tried first and did not Summit. The deaths above are only the ones who Summited and died descending. This is a dangerous Sport, don't let anyone tell you any different.
Climbers seem to feel the window is opening again, with many moving up on the South.
