This morning (May 16, Nepal time) the first all-Sherpa team summited Everest. They came up from the south side. No furriners on the team, so no carrying somebody else's loads for miniscule wages while the folks paying tens of thousands get all the glory. Two of the team, Apa Sherpa, 47 and Lhakpa Gelu Sherpa, 39, currently live in Utah.
