Two Icelandic climbers, Ingólfur Axelsson and Vilborg Arna Gissuradóttir, are still at Everest base camp. They are members of two different expeditions but both are unsure if they can proceed with their plans to make a summit attempt after the tracic events last Friday when sixteen Nepalese guides were killed in a devastating avalanche.
According to AFP Nepalese guides at Everest say they have decided to abandon the climbing season this year to honour their dead colleague.
