Last year you did an assignment during the February vacation in which you looked at 360 degree panoramas. Remember, a panorama is a wide-angle look at something. 360 degrees is a full circle...
You were able to look at a monument or city from every angle. You got a birds-eye view, a view you've never seen before.
This year we will use the same technology, high quality panoramic images, to climb Mt. Everest...
Your assignment:
Read this article ...
... and then go to the Glacier Works site and you will see a panorama featuring Mr. Everest. Click on the panoramic image
When you open the panorama, explore it, more the image around, look up & down, left & right. Use all the tools at the bottom of the image to explore:

At first look I thought it was just the very top of the mountain.I could see some colored things near what I thought looked like a path, I zoomed in and they turned out to be tents (the base camp)! I could see some people - almost all of them were near the base camp. I think it must have been hard to make this site. Part of the mountain looks hard to climb. I also think there is a lot of snow even at the bottom. I think this is a cool site.
The first thought that came to mind was wow,that is a big mountain.
Yes I did see the mountain climbers.
The mountain climbers were on the mountain and some were on the ground.Yes I did see the base campers.
When I hear the words Mount Everest I think of large snowy mountains with snow boarders snow boarding down the side of the mountain. I was able to make three observations. First, although it looks hot in the picture of Mt. Everest, the snow is still covering a majority of the mountain. Second, they are many rocks around Mt. Everest that are probably pieces of rock that broke off the mountain. Third, the rocks on the mountain aren't only brown they are also yellow. Those are my observations about the picture. I indeed saw the base camp. The climbers put up a lot yellow tents to sleep in. I didn't see any people actually climbing but, I saw around thirteen people in the base. My thoughts are that I really like the picture, it makes me feel like I am in a helicopter above Mt. Everest. And to conclude this blog, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
It reminded me of snow and winter.
I can not see the mountain climbers on the glacier.I think this picture of these mountain glaciers are cool. If were there I would try to climb it but everybody Knows I cant do that, its going to be hard.
When I first saw Mt.Everest I thought of piece of rocks rumbling down the mountain.I really observed the pile of snow.I dont really see the mountain climbers on the glacier.If I were them, I would be screaming up to my lungs.I didnt see no mountain climbers.My thoughts about the picture is that this is a awesome picture.To close my paragraph,MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
When I think of the words MT Everest I think of a large snowy mountain covered with rocks and theres tons of snow and its really cold and people watching climbers climb up the mountain and try to get to the top.I did see the camp and the climbers on the ground but I didn't seen any climbing the mountain. The camp was yellow and bright.I loved looking at that picture because it looked like I was a bird looking at MT Everest.Bye and MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!
At first I thought I was in the Himalayas. The things I noticed there are lots of rocks. I also noticed there is a lot of snow. I saw mountain climbers on the mountain. I saw base camps too. I think website is COOL because this website helps you look at places that you have never been to. Those are thoughts about the Mount Everest.

When I first saw the picture I thought it looked like an easy mountain path. But when I started to zoom in and see things... I saw rocks that used to look like pebbles now looked like 8ft tall!!!!!! I did find the mountain climbers on the glacier. The parts of the mountain they were climbing so steep they could've slipped right off the mountain. They were on a path that went straight through the mountains. There were 11 of the climbers. I saw the base camp, too. But at first I thought the camp were colored pebbles because of how small it seemed.
I think the website is a genius idea. It lets you get to know everest without having to actually go there wich is great for some people.!.!. The pictures were AMAZING!!! Whoever took them is PEERRFEECCTT!!
I agree with the athor of the article that the safest way to visit mount everest is through the photo. This is a cool site. I was able to find the base camp with all the tents set up. As you go around on the bottom of the mountin near the base camp it looks pretty easy to walk around but as you go up the mountin it looks pretty cold and dangerous. Happy holidays Erik V
The first time I saw this I was thinking of snow and winter also CHRISTMAS. I didnt see the mountain climbers.If I was there I would not even touch the glacier.Mt. Everest is very cool and intersecting to look at and to study about. MERRY CHRISTMAS
When I first saw the picture of Mount Everest, I thought that if I wanted to climb Mount Everest it would be very easy. But then, I zoomed in and saw all the bumpy rocks. Thats when i knew it would not be easy. I did not see any mountin climbers on Mount Everest. I did see the base camp though. I'm almost positive that the climbers were in the tents. Maybe one day I may climb Mount Everest, Who knows? To conclude this paragraph I will say MERRY CHRISMAS, HAPPY HANUKKAH AND KWANZAA. ALSO HAPPY NEW YEAR, SEE YOU IN 2013 MR.CASAL!!!!!!

When I first saw the large picture of Mt. Everest I thought of big iceberg and snow boarding. I observed lots of things like camp site, ice with rocks and finally people hanging their clothes. I looked and looked and I didn’t see the mountain climbers on the glacier. The base camp was pretty colorful and neat to see. I thought the whole thing was pretty cool because I saw Mt. Everest up close and it felt like I was there.
Miguel Gonzalez
When i first saw the picture it was so0 AMAZING!!!When i started to zoom in i saw little pebbles of rocks,tents and people. I did find the mountain climbers on the glacier and i saw the the base camp. i also noticed there is a lot of snow. THIS WEBSITE IS REALLY COOL;]
happy holiday to u and your family
When I saw the large picture of Mt. Everest I thought it was very big, but it also looks very dangerous and scary. There are bumpy parts, sharp places you can step on and slippery snow. I observed Mt. Everest is very dangerous to be climbing on because you can fall in the snow and fall off the mountain. I clearly saw four mountain climbers in a space with no snow, only a little bit of rocks and what looks like lots of sand. I think I saw two base camps. One camp was by the mountain climbers. It had buildings with both blue and green roofs, and yellow tents. The other base camp had a lot of tents that were mostly yellow. The website had details about Mt. Everest and I will like to see more people on the mountain. I also like the view of Mt. Everest.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
when I saw that picture it looked like just a path that people could clinb just ealily. but when I zoomed in on the picture I seriously fell out of my seat! I was observing WAY to long becaue I think I was observing the picture for about an hour! but the odd part about it aws that i saw no people climbing the mountain. but i definatly saw the base camp. that was what made me fall out of my seat. it was tiny compared to the HUGE mountain. i cant belive technoligy these days. they've improved massivly since 3rd grade.
hope everybody has a good christmas and a happy new year.:)
I have heard people say that it is really big and that its the tallest mountain on earth. So based on that particular information I thought Mt. Everest is a regular mountain but when I saw the picture and I zoomed in, it was amazing. I did see mountain climbers, I saw about 82 mountain climbers. Some were hard to see but I found them (maybe not all of them they were all over the mountain!) I observed a lot of rocky cliffs and mountains which impressed me because I never thought it could be that rocky! I did see the base camp, it was huge. I never thought that some camp could be that big. I did not know that I can learn so much in one website like this!
ayva h.
when i first saw the picture,i thought it was beautiful.i observed at it was surrounded by a lot of other mountains.i did not find the mountain climbers.i did see the base camp.i thought the picture was well taking.i also realized, how big the mountain really was.
The first thing I thought when I looked at this view of Mount Everest was "what it would be like if i was one of the hundred climbers climbing Mount Everest?" I saw both buildings and tents in the base camps along the edge of the mountain. One of the things I observed was that all of the base camps were in a row, not a long distance from each other. I think I saw climbers on the glaciers, though I am not positive. Overall, I would recommend this website to anyone who would not want to leave the comfort of their home, but still explore Mount Everest.
When I first saw the picture I thought that Mt.Everest is HUGE. I observed it was pretty bumpy pretty much E V E R Y W H E R E. I didn't see any campers on the glacier but I'm pretty sure I saw some at the base camp. (My dad has even been to the base camp so he knows what it's like). I enjoyed the picture because it was cool trying to find the base camp. Happy Holidays and as usual, GO GIANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It looked tiny at first. Can you believe that. Then I saw
the human on the mountain. TINY!!!!. But the mountain was so awesome. But I wouldn't climb it. i found most of the other camps, including the base camp. And I made a route all the way to the top of Everest.
.
When I hear Mt.Everest I think of a huge mountain that's rocky and is huge that reaches up to clouds
When I first saw the picture of Mt. Everest, I thought it looked like a really small mountain. But when I looked more closely at the mountain, and saw the tiny people, I realized the mountain is huge! I observed that the top of the mountain on the far left, looks like a trapezoid. I also observed that there is more dirt and rock on the left and right sides, and there is more snow on the middle of the picture. I also observed that in the center there is a path of snow and ice, that looks like a road. I read a comment underneath the article, that helped me find the climbers. The comment said “Yep, no sense trying to get any work done. You can clearly see the climbers on the face of Lhotse and on the left side of the Khumba ice falls.” I found around 30 people. I saw the base camp, on the left of the “ice road”. I think that website is pretty helpful to see how Everest looks. I definitely would not climb Mount Everest. I like to scroll around, zoom in and out, and look at the mountains on the website.
At first I thought the picture was of a tiny model of Mount Everest.I also thought that some of the huge cliffs I could step over. Then I started zooming in and I realized that the real objects were huge! I did see the base camp. I did not see any climbers or other camps. I observed that a lot of the snow is in the middle of the picture and the dirt is on the sides. I bet it is cold either way though! I thought the picture was taken from a good angle and it showed Mount Everest well. I thinkthe website is AWESOME because it allows people to explore Mount Everest in the comfort of their home. I LOVED this assignment!
When i first saw the picture of Mount Everest i thought it was empty. I saw a lot of snow so i think it is cold there.
I observe that it has a lot of snow, is rocky and is very very big.
When i looked at the picture i did not see any people. Then i zoomed in and saw a lot but not to many people.
I counted the people i saw and there were 22 of them.
When i saw the base camp when not zoomed in it looked like apart of the ground. Then when i zoomed in it stared to look like something, i zoomed in a little more and i saw the base camp.
I like the website because when you first go on it you usually see a picture. And your allowed to click on it and when you click it, it makes the picture go side to side, up and down, and allowing you to zoom in.
When I first looked at the picture I thought that those camps were gold and dimonds . But when I went a little closer I realized that it was a camp. Then I was amazed on how big mount Everest was. I even saw a house not a tent a house. HAVE A HAPPY HOLIDAY!!!!!!!!!
When I first looked at the picture of Mt.Everest I saw a bunch of snow, dirt, mountains, and trash.
I observed the mountains on Mt.Everest a little closer and I realized that they were very ROCKY. I did not find ANY mountain climbers on the glaciers.
I did see tents and climbers at the base camp as I zoomed in closer. At first I thought the base camp was TRASH! But it wasn't.
I liked all the features on the website. You could use such features as the zoom in, zoom out, and full screen buttons. I wish that they could make the picture 360 degrees.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
When I look at the picture of mount Everest I see big mountains,snow,and rocks. Every time I climbed higher and higher all the way to the top I felt like a giant. It gets very cold at night. When I got near the top I had to wear a oxygen mask because I couldn't breath. I had to wear four jackets because it gets very cold . Finally I was at the top of Mount Everest. I could see the clouds,and the big blue sky.
Happy NewYear.
When I first saw Mt. Everest, It felt like I was looking at 2 different
mountains. Half of it was filled with snow,half of it was EXTREMELY rocky. When I saw the climbers, I sort of felt attached to them,Because they had completed there hiking quest, to climb the highest land mountain in the world. Their base felt like a city, or a town in somewhere like New Zealand. When I saw the base had the Switzerland,I understood. Well to finish this up, One of the things I want to do before i die, Is climb Mount Everest
Ian Saint Germain
As I opened the picture of Mt. Everest I saw 1 group of people, a couple big camp site, snow and at least 50 tents. When I first saw it my brother took over the computer and asked what I was doing and he mostly saw the camp site. My mom did not know what one was Mt. Everest so I just want with the flow the only thing I wish was you could look back behind Mt. Everest. I thought that they were tiny rocks at first but when I saw the people the first thing I thought was that it is huge. The End.
Marvin Heilbronn
When I first looked at the picture I saw that it looked like it was split in half, one side really rocky and the other side snowy. When I looked around everything was snowy. I played around with it more and saw what looked liked blue bags, but it turned out to be a base camp. To me it looks like a toy village. Then I saw two people on the edge of a cliff. All of the mountains seem super steep. I just saw what looked like a cave that was a free fall if you went inside. It was covered with giant icicles. My last thought was that climate change really took an affect on Mt. Everest. The glacier that runs down the center of the picture does not have any more snow.
Happy Holidays!
When I first saw the picture of MT. Everest it looked huge, rocky, and snowy. I observed that there was a lot of tents in the base camp, and a lot of people. The base camps looked very small compared to MT. Everest. I didn't see any mountain climbers on the mountain. I think the website is awesome and that the website takes very good pictures.
When I first saw that large picture of Mt. Everest, I thought that it was amazing. I thought that it was amazing because it was so big and beautiful. Also, it was very, very, white. When I was looking at it, I saw lots of things. One thing I saw was the base camp. The base camp was very big. Another thing I saw were hikers. They were small compare to the mountain. And I saw some people at the base camp. And the last thing I observed, were the glaciers. They were coved in very thick ice. I saw at least 12 hikers on the glaciers. There were some people by the base camp. And, some were about halfway up the mountains. I saw the base camp. There were lots and lots of tents. Also, there were about 5 hikers there. The base camp stretched very far, and was very big. I think that the website was cool. I liked the idea of creating a 360 panorama image of Mt. Everest especially since there are many people who can’t see, or hike this massive mountain.
I thought that it looked pretty amazing when I first saw it. I saw a bunch of bumpy rocks and high mountaintops. I saw the climbers but none were climbing they were at the base camp. It looked like a path of rocks with little snow. The website is pretty cool in my opinion and the picture had good graphics.
When I first looked at Mt, Everest I thought that it was gigantic! It was at least five times bigger than I thought it would be! I observed the base camp, it was as many times bigger as the mountain than I thought it would be, there must have been over two thousand people camped there!
The first group of mountain climbers I saw were in a long line. They were
climbing up a long steep half hill of deep snow.The second group of mountain climbers I saw were walking down a flat part of the mountain. I saw three of them first, but than I noticed a fourth mountain climber about ninety feet behind them.
I liked the picture but I wish you could move the camera around more. I also wish you could be able to control all the camera movements with.
Rajesh Parmar
When I saw Mt, Everest I was amazed. It looked like it was over 299 feet tall. I didn't see the climbers or the base camp. I love the website because it lets me see different things in different places.
When I first saw Mt.Everest I actually thought it would be easy to climb. Then I looked more closely and I saw that it was actually really big. I saw the base camp. The base camp looked very festive to me. I also saw a small village near the mountain.
When I first saw the picture I thought it was amazing. I observed that there was a path leading to who knows where? I saw the mountain climbers at the base camp. There were about thirteen climbers. I thought that the picture made Mount Everest look like a SUPER tall mountain.
When I first saw Mt. Everest I saw big mountains covered in snow. Mt Everest is made out of rocks and the roads are bumpy. I did not see any mountain climbers on the glacier. I did see the base camp. I found it interesting. I think that it is a cold place and it probably has a good view.
Andy Garcia
When I first saw Mt. Everest, the first thought that came to my head was that it is really big. I saw snow covering the ground and the roads were really bumpy. I didn't see the mountain climbers on the glacier but I did see the base camp. I think that Mt. Everest is a really cold place and it would have a great view.
when I saw the picture I thought that it was so big and cool.
I observed 3 mountains that had snow on them and a big rock pathway.
No I did not find the mountain climbers,I also did not find the base camp.
My thoughts about the pictue I liked how they had the features were you could ajust the picture(zoom,move side to side.
When I saw the picture of Mt. Everest I thought to myself, "How did these climbers climb this mountain??" I couldn't believe how Mother Nature formed that mountain range! I saw the base camp at the bottom of the mountain where all of the climbers hang out. I noticed at base camp there were A LOT of tents, and I even noticed that there were a pair of pants drying on a rock! There were also a lot of prayer flags hung all throughout base camp which reminded me of a spider web but much more colorful and bigger. Well, I found two mountain climbers that looked like they were just starting to head up the mountain. Yes, I definitely saw Base Camp, how could you miss it!! I thought the picture was really life-like, it was almost like I was there. I loved the web site and I hope you give us home work from this site more often!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

When I first looked at the picture the first thing that came to mind was that the mountains were huge and full of snow.I found the people on the ground of Mt. Everest camping in their tents. There was a lot of people; the color of the tents were green,blue,yellow,orange,red. I also saw a nursing tent set up there too, and a bunch of colorful flags everywhere. Seeing this picture makes me want to go and visit there looks awesome!

When I first looked at the picture of mt,Everest I saw a gigantic mountian. I observed a camp houses and 9 people wondering around the mountian. I also observed huge glaciers with people on it. They were climbing mountian and walking around in the snow. Well my thoughts about the mountian is thats it is twice as big as I thought it would be.
When I first saw Mt. Everest I thought that climbing it would be a life threatening mission...like Mission Impossible! The mountains are HUGE! I explored the panoramic view and zoomed into the base camp to see the people. I didn't see any people on the glaciers. Looking at the mountains made me think of going to the top and yodeling just liKe a boy named Rudi did in a book I read called "Banner in the Sky" by James Ullman. I loved the website because it let me experience something I don't have the chance to see. The wide variety of views let's me personally interact with the mountain in ways I can't do on my own. It was awesome!
When I first saw Mount Everest it looked huge like 100000 cars could fit their. When I zoomed in I saw the base camps. I saw that one hole could fit like 25 tents!After I saw those tents it looked about the size of 100000 football fields!I saw some other base camps on the other side of the mountain. But I really wanted to see the mountain climbers so I looked on some glacers but then I saw some people right near the base camp. But it really looked like it was only a little bit of a walk. That mountain is huge!!!!
When i first saw the picture i thought "so which mountain is Everest?" Then i came to a conclusion, it was all Mt. Everest. When i looked through the picture i saw 3 things that took my attention. The first was this huge gray cloud in the corner of the picture. The second thing was a rock avalanche.it was interesting, because i usually only see avalanches in cartoons. the last thing was a group of people who i looked at for a moment and then lost them.i would guess there were about 15 of them.the picture and the incredible detail in it made me feel like i was really there. i never thought a picture could be so amazing and real.
When I saw the picture of Mt. Everest, I thought, this will be an awesome homework assignment.
Saw about 500 tons of snow and a lot of rocks/stones and pebbles, and some people coming out of their tents.
I saw a couple of people ( I saw 4 climbers)
I saw a base camp. And to give me a challenge I counted all the tents! ( over 100! )
In my opinion, I thought this was a great idea to have this homework and i had a lot of fun doing it! This gave me a idea to actually climb Mt. Everest. This is a great picture of Mt. Everest. I think my step-dad can take this shot. :)
Happy holidays!
:)
At first I thought I was looking at the top of mountain but then I saw the base camp and I realized I was looking at the mountain itself. I did not see the climbers though. I observed that the base camp was super tiny compared to the mountain. I also saw that there was a pile of snow on one side of the mountain that looked like a avalanche. In all I thought the site was very cool and I had a fun time on it.

When I saw Mt, Everest I was amazed. It looked like it was over 299 feet tall. I didn't see the climbers or the base camp. I love the website because it lets me see different things in different places.
The first thing that I said when I saw Mt.Everest was it was little and that it looked like it only took 10 steps to get to the top. But when I saw the tents I said people are big and us compared to a mountain we are like ants. The things I observed were little blue and orange blackish tents. I also saw Mt.Everest like the brown rocks and snow piled on top of the rocks and other mountains surrounded just like it. I also saw the base camp at the bottom of Mt.Everest.
At first, when I zoomed out to get a clear view, I saw what looked like a large valley and something that looked like a frozen river leading into it, but as it turned out, all I could see was snow chunks when I zoomed in. On the zoomed out view, I saw what looked like garbage, but when I zoomed in, it was a nice little camp.
when I first saw the picture of mt Everest wow.It was covered with layers of ice.It looked so big something worth taking an effort to climb.I noticed that it looks like the higher up you go the more ice there is.And what was wierd is that I always thought that it was layers and layers of snow but I saw lots of dirt probably global warming im not 100 percent sure.I also noticed some tracks I dont know if it was just mud prints but it looked like there was some kind of vehicle there.The picture was lovely but the attention span I have for doing something like that is short I wouldnt ever be able to climb up there.It looks so easy from the picture to climb up there it looks fast but I know its not. The picture is astonishing.
When I looked at Mount Everest I thought that it was huge! I can't imagine how cold the hikers must be. I'm sure they are so excited thought that they don't really even realize it. When I zoomed in on pictures, you can see the hikers and tents that are set up on the mountain. The snow looks amazing and maybe one day I actually will climb Mount Everest!!
When I first saw the panorama of mt. Everest I thought its shape was so cool and the beautiful snow. The things I observed were all the mountains behind it. I did not see any climbers though. I didn't see the base camp either. The things I thought in general were it must be very hard to it , and why is it cold there all the time. These are my thoughts all about mt. Everest.
when I first saw the mountain I thought it looked really cool, but when I started going up I saw the very top and it was awesome!!!!! It surprised me because I thought the mountain was going to be more snow but most of it was rock! I saw the base camp but it took a long time for me to find it.I found a few people walking around the base camp. I thought that the website was cool because people that haven't been to mount Everest good see it.
When I first saw the picture I thought this mountain is huge. You can see alot of mountains,snow and rocks.It was hard to find but I saw 30 mountain climbers.I saw a bunch of houses or tents.I think this website is good because I might want to visit there one time
when i first saw it i thought it was a mountin with snow on it.then i looked closer but I couldnt find the rock climber.i thought that is a cool picture.
Jordan M. said,
When I first saw the picture of mt. Everest i thought it was beautiful, and then my mom and I started to look for the climbers but we couldnt find any. I found the base camp and compared to the mountin the people look like ants... no wonder why I couldn't find any climbers
Thomas Gibbins
The first time I saw Mount Everest I thought its just a lame mountain. But then I saw a bunch of colorful spots.
I zoomed in and found it was the Base Camp! I found 4 people int he Base Camp. But when I explored the mountain I found 81 people! They were difficult to find because they were no bigger then ants compared to the mountain. I found 85 climbers in all. I also found a little town.
When I first saw the mount Everest, I though it was really high. I observed that there were lots of small rocks, pebbles, and flat stones. No, I did not see the climbers. Yes, I saw the base camp.
I thought that the website was pretty cool.
When I first saw the picture I had never realized that Mount Everest was so big and so beautiful, and according to the article the picture is the safest way to climb Mount Everest. I observed that there seemed to be two trails at the bottom leading to the top, how ever I saw no base camps or hikers. In general I thought the wedsite was amazing, and I never knew that, that high level of technology was possible.
I think it looked amazing there was a a really nice texture in the mountain!!!
i saw climbers, 19 of them.
i saw all of the climbers in the base camp.
i think the picture had really nice resolution to be able to zoom so close .
i saw a really weird chunk of wood near the base
camp.
i noticed people were smaller than ants.
i also noticed there's a sort of trail of snow.

When I first looked at this picture of Mount Everest I thought that Mount Everest was a tiny boulder, then I saw caves I couldn’t believe how big it was, even the small chunks of snow next to the tents seemed like they would be as big as mountains. When I first saw it I thought Mount Everest it seemed like it was a tiny rock then I zoomed in and saw all the tents and that must have been the base camp. I saw about 15 people standing around in a circle, I think they were discussing the climb. I also saw someone had there snow pants hanging over a tent to dry.
I thought this picture was neat, I can’t believe how they got the whole entire mountain and all the details.
This was huge I am glad I am not there because there is a lot of danger. I saw: a lot of color at the base camp, rock face jutting out. I found the camp at the bottom of the mountain but not the climbers….yet. I like this website because you can see sites of archeology, the famous mountain where many have climbed to the top and many have died trying.

When I first saw the panorama I thought, "Wow C.C., that's a HUGE mountain! It sort of looked like a bunch of giant pointed teeth. I saw a few mountain climbers near the bottum. I don't know how many. I did see the base camp. There were a lot people there! As for my thoughts, I might want to climb Mt. Everest. It would be really cool but really hard.
Happy New Year!
at first all i saw was a huge rocky mountain but then i zoomed in and found base camp and about 10 climbers. i also saw a little town.
When I saw Mt.Everest I was amazed, I knew it was big but not that big.
Unfortuneatly I wasn't able to find the explorers or the base however I did notice what seemed like a path made of snow.
I did find the website amasing and I never knew that kind of technolagy was possible.
What I first thought when I saw the large picture of Mt. Everest was that it must be very cold there. I observed that it must be spring, since there wasn't a lot of snow. I also observed that there seemed to be steam coming from behind the top of the mountain. The only mountain climbers I saw were at the base camp. I counted 20, even though there were probably many more inside the tents. I saw the base camp and was SHOCKED at how small it was. I think the website is pretty cool and will write the name down so that I can keep visiting it.
When I first saw the picture of Mt. Everest, I was amazed. This was a mountain that many people had climbed, and succeeded. These people must have a huge sense of determination. I observed that all of the tiny houses and people looked like ants compared to what looked like a giant foot path. I found 7 people, and they were near the bottom-right hand corner and the lower-left hand corner of the screen. I saw the base camp; it was near about half of the people I saw, on the right side of the screen. I thought that this website was awesome, because not many people actually get to see Mt. Everest.
When I first saw the picture I didn't think that it was Mount Everest!!! But what I noticed was that most snow was collected on the top of the smaller mountains that make up Mount Everest. But why? But the pathways also have a lot of sleet, snow, and ice.
-Hannah .D.
what i saw was a bunch of ice and rock. what i noticed was that the people were so much smaller then the mountain. i did not find any people on the mountain. yes i did see the bace camp. i like the picture because it looks cool.

I am utterly amazed this is the biggest mountain I have ever seen in my whole life, even the Adirondacks are tiny compared to Mount Everest! Since Mount Everest is SO high up it snowy and cold. Its snowy and its very very cold , but it's lack of atmosphere, or rather, of atmospheric pressure, that sucks the heat out of high places.At sea level, the pressure is around 14.7 pounds per square inch.At 5,000 feet it's around 12.2 pounds per square inch.While humans are comfortable at either level, that's quite a change in pressure. So it's cold and as seen in the picture it is utterly covered in snow. Sadly I didn't see any climbers on the glacier, but I my hypothesis is that they were doing it for fun, or to find scientific discoveries, I'm betting on they were scientists trying to discover. I did see the base camp and since you called it a BASE CAMP that sort -of proves they were scientists trying to discover something new. Some are big probably laboratory's to discover minerals, cures, lost species, e.t.c. I think this website is very educational, it can strength young minds to explore, and discover, what they can't leave to see, I personally love this website I learned people ( or scientists ) camp out, in Mount Everest.

The first thing I thought was "must find hikers!" I first just looked around the picture and tried to find everything I could. Then I found the glacier and tried to find the hikers and base camp but didn't until the end. When I did, I found one hiker and he was near the base camp. Altogether, I liked it but it was hard to find the hikers and the base camp.
first a thought that it was huge.I observed a rocky pathway in the middle,then many smaller mountins surrounding mt.Everest.No I did see the climbers.I did not see the base camp ether.I really liked the website and the way you can go up,down,left or right on the panorama.
When i first saw the picture of mt.everest i thought that it was very a intresting sight. I also thought that it would be very terifiying to climb. When i zoomed in i saw a lot of little sort of craters in the rock. I also observed that there was a lot of snow in those craters.I did not find any of the mountain climbers and i didnt see a sign of the base camp.one thought i had was that the mountain was very big. Another thought i had was that the website gave me good ideas to write down.
Well,at first i was looking for the ice picker.I found two things.
1.Mount Everest when i saw it i was like...WOW it's so BIG!
2.A glaicer,i followed it and i found the ice picker.The camp wasn't to far behind.

When I first saw the picture of Mount Everest I thought this assignment is awesome!
I observed the snow and I saw interesting snow sculptures. I saw a skeleton, a dragon and some sort of head.
I found the climbers; there were 2 of them. I saw them up the mountain, close to the base camp.
Yes I did see the camp. They mostly had yellow and blue tents. I also saw 23 people at the base camp.
My thoughts were that this assignment was the most fun one I have done in years. I also realized at you have to pay close attention to screen and the surroundings.
When I saw Mt.Everest for the first time I was amazed to see its size! I observed part of Mt.Everest. I was amazed to see how big the camp was. I wonder how they got it up there? This website rocks!!!
