Kit Deslauriers @kitdski crosses a ladder in the Khumbu Icefall. Travelling here is undoubtably the most dangerous part of climbing Everest. Overhead hazard from seracs (ice cliffs), shifting ice blocks, and falls while climbing are some of the dangers. Foreign climbers may go through the Icefall 6-8 times in a season. Local high altitude workers go through almost daily, maintaining the route and carrying supplies for higher up on the mountain. Most seasons there is at least one death in this section. In April 2014, 16 Nepalese climbers were killed and 9 others injured here when serac released from the cliffs above. @khumbuclimbingcenter aims to improve the safety of local guides through education in technical rope work, safe climbing practices and rescue techniques. There is even a course specifically for the guides who are responsible for setting and maintaining the Icefall route. Check out their feed to follow along with this years class or visit www.alexlowe.org This week I’m sharing some of my favourite Nepal photos and encouraging donations to the KCC. If you have climbed in Nepal (or dream of it), you likely will have worked with some of their graduates. This is a great way to give back! Donate today and I will personally match it up to a total of $1000! We’ve already raised $600, lets keep it going! Every little bit helps! I’m also going to randomly choose a donor to receive a 16x24” print of one of my Nepal photos (your choice)! Just shoot me a private message and I’ll match your donation and put you in the hat for the print draw! What are you waiting for? Double your donation to a great cause and get a chance for a Nepal print! Share this post and encourage all your mountain loving friends to donate Photo | Caption Courtesy ~ @brycebrownimages #follow ☝️ #photowalkersnp #photowalkers #nepali #nipec #travelers #travelasia #instanepal #nepal8thwonder #khumbuicefall #streetphoto #travelphoto #instagood #instanepal #nepalese #khumbuglacier #discovernepal #namcheyofficial #dktm #himgeo #himalayangeographic #culture #Nepaleseculture #nepal #streetshot #nap2074 #weare500px #instawebApp (at Khumbu Icefall)

This was taken in the ghost town of Bodie in California, shortly before the park closed for that day. I had spotted the deer a little further up the hill and snuck up there as close as possible without scaring them off, and then one of them looked up and right at me. Shot with a Nikon D300. #photography #animal #animals #weare500px
