Fantastic Everest

The GlacierWorks project has a fantastic gigapixel image of Everest that is worth looking at.  When you zoom in you can see the base camp tents, and even tents on the face of Everest.  Does an excellent job of providing scale to the massive mountain, and you can listen to an interview of the project on npr.
