Terrifying Photos From Inside The Deadly Avalanche On Mount Everest

The devastating earthquake that struck Nepal on Saturday triggered a massive avalanche at Mount Everest that left at least 18 people dead.
Roberto Schmidt, a photographer for Agence France-Presse, captured the terrifying scenes at Everest base camp when the avalanche hit.
Rescuers evacuated a number of avalanche survivors on Sunday, but many more climbers are feared to be trapped on the world's highest peak. "I heard a big noise, and the next thing I know I was swept away by the snow," tour guide Pemba Sherpa told the Associated Press. "I must have been swept almost 200 meters (yards)."
