    Look it's Mt. Everest. It's a traffic jam.

    Nepal Visuals on Instagram: "On May 21, 2024, at 6:00 am, climbers faced major challenges on the summit ridge of Mount Everest. The ridge was covered in soft snow, with many unstable cornices and rocky sections hidden under the snow. Even the weather station near the summit was partly buried in snow. While descending after crossing the Hillary Step, a cornice suddenly collapsed just a few meters ahead of the climbers. Another fragile cornice was directly beneath their feet, making the situation extremely dangerous. Four climbers were almost swept away by the collapse but managed to save themselves by staying clipped to the fixed rope. Sadly, two climbers went missing and have not been found. Heavy traffic on the fixed lines made it impossible to move forward. The delay caused serious risks as many climbers were running out of oxygen. To help, a new route had to be created so climbers could start descending again. Slowly, the traffic began to clear. The climbers later rested at Camp 3 and returned to Base Camp on May 22. This incident shows just how dangerous Everest can be, with unstable snow formations, crowded routes, and unpredictable conditions threatening even the most prepared climbers. Video Details: Video 1: Before the cornice collapsed. Video 2: After the cornice collapsed. Video 3: Climbers descending after the route was repaired. @malla.mountaineer #nepal #himalayas #mountains #everest #mountainlovers #mountainadventures #mountaineering #nepalvisuals #mountaineer #8000ers #k2 #mountainpeople #mountainlife #climbingmountains #mountainreels #climbingrocks #mountain #explorepage"

    Nice looking pistol. I keep a 43 in my front pants pocket. I would have gotten something like that except for the weight. I know that's got more capacity but that's not what I was looking for. You gonna put a few rounds thru that thing and let us know how you like it?

    I’ll sneak off in the next day or two and try it out— daughter has one and loves it and almost has her mother talked into packing so if I don’t like the other half will get it and I’ll keep looking
