In this photo taken Saturday, March 30, 2019, Nima Doma, 34, right, and Furdiki Sherpa, 43, stand for photographs after their morning exercise as they train to summit Mount Everest, in Kathmandu, Nepal. Five years after one of the deadliest disasters on Mount Everest, three people from Nepal's ethnic Sherpa community, including Doma and Sherpa, are preparing an ascent to raise awareness about the Nepalese mountain guides who make it possible for hundreds of foreign climbers to scale the mountain and survive. The two women lost their husbands in the 2014 ice avalanche on Everest’s western shoulder that killed 16 fellow Sherpa guides. (AP Photo/Niranjan Shrestha)
