Based on information from the wellknown website ExplorersWeb, the
weather was predicted to improve on Sunday 29 May (2005), with the jet
moving away from Everest and climbers ran for it. It was a great
success. It seems to that all teams who tried it made it, and Everest was
summited from the south side at last.
According to the website Explorersweb, Mountain Madness guide Willie Benegas
and the strong team of Sherpas were the first climbers who summited Everest from
the South side this season.
Other summiteers were the first Muslim women, Koreans, Rotary, AA,
IMG, Spaniards, and other scattered climbers.
On the north side there was success for IAF, Seven
Summits club, Project Himalaya/DCXP and other. Check all names on the
Explorersweb`s site www.explorersweb.com
