No-one carries the dead down from the peak. Everyone up there is on borrowed time, and trying to remove the dead will likely have you join them.

Green Boots is a landmark on the main trail. A frozen body in a small rock cave near the summit with bright colored boots. The dry cold pretty much mummifies the bodies, and they wear so many jackets and clothes you can see the bodies from decades ago. One area is called the rainbow valley. Hundreds have died climbing Everest. 29,000 feet.
