Everest Climbers Forced to Quit Last Year to Get New Permits

In this Sunday, March 22, 2015 photo, a porter carries wooden planks to build a tea house in Lobuche, one of the last overnight stops with lodging on the way to the Everest base camp, Nepal. The three-month climbing season for Everest, the world's tallest mountain, begins in March. Last year, a sudden fall of ice struck a group of Sherpa guides hauling gear near base camp, killing 16 Sherpas in the worst single disaster on Everest. (Photo by Tashi Sherpa/AP Photo)
