All climbing on Mount Everest has come to a halt amid chaotic scenes at base camp, according to climbers there, four days after the worst-ever accident on the mountain. Some local guides are calling for a boycott but most foreign mountaineers remain on the mountain and are still hoping to resume climbing in the next week or so. A puja ceremony on Tuesday for the 16 sherpa climbing guides killed by last Fridays avalanche descended into a surge of furious chanting and calls for all climbing to be suspended, according to several mountaineers present. bbc/news/world-asia-india-27112443?OCID=fbbbcindia
