Everest 2021: Everest’s gatekeeper – the Khumbu Icefall

Teams are approaching Everest Base Camp with some already there, others expected tomorrow and into early next week. They will take a few days to adjust to their new home at 17,500-feet while they will review the skills needed to safely climb the icefall. I expect a few teams to do a rotation to Camp 1 late next week. Through April 9, Nepal has issued 244 Everest climbing permits to foreigners.
