With every person that has achieved fame with the summit of Everest, there has been a team of brave
Sherpas. They carry the load of all summit conquerors, which they possibly could not. The Sherpas
lead the way, point out the dangers, save the teams from abroad when they get in trouble and lead the way down.
The ascent to the peaks generally commences in the pitch dark of the night. The Sherpas lead the
way..they build the ladders, in the dark, that others climb on. At each turn the Honorable Sherpas
lead the way.
When the ascent is complete, the Sherpas stand behind for those that paid the money to have their
photographs taken, their documentaries made, and their books written.
All of us seem to know one Sherpa name..Tan Seng..But there are many unsung heroes each equally
deserving of fame and respect.
Many, many Sherpa lives have been lost helping others achieve fame and riches.. they themselves remain unsung..
This is the final resting place of Sherpas that have given their lives so that others could fulfill their
dreams..the Sherpa Cemetary high up in the Himalyas. Each stone marks one Brave Life.
My wife took this picture on her way to Everest Base camp.
My greatest respect to these brave and honorable people.
