Tenzing Norgay, Edmund Hillary, the Sherpas who carried the mountain on their backs, and the four hundred men and women who made one summit possible
THE SHERPA TENZING NORGAY
This was his seventh expedition to Everest. He climbed not to conquer the mountain, but to complete a journey begun as a boy.
THE CLIMBER EDMUND HILLARY
A beekeeper from New Zealand, more at home among mountains than crowds. Ice axe in hand, he carved the final steps to the top.
THE TEAM Those who carried it
Twenty tonnes of equipment, carried on foot for 280 kilometres by Sherpas and porters.
