Wow, one of my friends was just posting yesterday on fb about her friend currently climbing Everest. I hope her friend is ok.



Well only around 600 people climb it each year so that is around 50 a month which is about 12 a week and 8 died so there is about a 66% chance she is dead. Sorry for her loss.

That's not how it works there. The primary climbing season is very short. The vast majority climb and summit in April/May.
