This is a gigapixel stitched of 477 images taken with a 300mm lens on Canon 5D mark II image of Everest taken from the base camp to the summit. You can zoom in and see hundreds of tents at the base camp and small camp just below the summit and climbers making their way up.

That's a crazy image. Amazing technology. And as far as the content, it looks like a small town of tents.

I can't believe how many tents are there over how large an area. I always imagined it as a small tight grouping of tents - like a football field sized area or something.
Also, if you follow the box indicating part of the camp, then follow the box there on the Hard Mountain tent, you can see pics of the little photo show that's set up. If you then click on the box for photo, it will take you to another pano of that actual area.
verrrrry cool. But, you won't find me ice hiking. Looks waaay too rigorous for me. So.........I really enjoy your treat of posting this, since I'll never be there
