RE: Trekking to Everest Base Camp: My Experience PART FOUR
It is sobering to think of how many people have not made it... we lost a friend of the family a few years ago -- his third climb. He started feeling symptoms of altitude sickness and decided to head down. Sadly, he never made it back to base camp.
I'm sorry to hear about that, it quite a somber experience looking at all the memorials for the fallen climbers.
