Mr. Sherpa along with the help of Story Cycle, a Nepal-based nonprofit organization and Google, photographed and mapped the region during a 10 day trek.

The virtual trek will allow viewers to get as close to Mount Everest as the Gorak Shep, the village that is nestled along the edge at an elevation of 5,164 meters.
