They are a team of very skilled Sherpas who help people to climb Everest.
They do this by laying out ladders over the Khumba ice fall where there have been the most deaths on the south side (the side in Nepal.)
They lay out ladders with Nylon wires to hold on to, these are secured with ice screws. The ladders stop climbers from falling in the crevasse below.
They replace the ladders each year and they camp on Everest in May to monitor them.
