Himalaya has its own heroes, called "heroes of uselessness" putting
their flags on the top after climbing without breaks. But at the
bottom of the mountain, some anti-heroes work hard as mules transfering
every day tons of provisions and materials to permit to these
heroes the success of their expeditions.. The main destination
of these men is Namche Bazaar, the last village in front of Everest,
reachable after three long and hard weeks of travel…while the
mountain climbers easily get it by helicopter…
