Tibetan workers sit next to a tent at Everest Base Camp after climbers carrying the Olympic torch reached the summit of the world's highest mountain Mount Everest, also known as Qomolangma, in the Tibet Autonomous Region May 8, 2008. Heavy snowfall during the past week had hampered efforts for the Olympic torch's ascent, but the team of 31 Chinese climbers, 22 of them ethnic Tibetans, reached Everest's summit with the Olympic flame this morning.
