HOW CAN YOU REACH THE TOP OF THE MOUNT EVEREST?

I know that all of us knows about Mount Everest. But my question is, How deeper is your knowledge about Mount Everest?



For your more information about the Mount Everest, this mountain is the world's (7855 m) and highest mountain, with a peak at 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) above sea level. It is located in the Mahalangur section of the Himalayas on the Nepal side of Nepal-ChinaTibet) border. Its massif includes neighboring peaks Lhotse (8516 m), NuptseChangtse (7580 m). In 1856, the Great Trigonometric Survey of British India established the first published height of Everest, then known as Peak XV, at 29,002 ft (8,840 m). In 1865, Everest was given its official English name by the Royal Geographical Society upon a recommendation by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India. Waugh named the mountain after his predecessor in the post, Sir George Everest. Although Tibetans had called Everest "Chomolungma" for centuries, Waugh was unaware of this because Nepal and Tibet were closed to foreigners. The highest mountain in the world attracts many well-experienced mountaineers as well as novice climbers willing to hire professional guides. Despite the fact it is the highest peak in the world, hikers from all over the world come and climb this mountain despite all difficulties. A whole team of climbers can help both armature and novice climbers climb the peak. If one follows the standard route to climb, it is quite safe to climb the mountains. However, the problem in the Himalayas are faced with bad weather, fast wind and low breathing that can happen due to high altitude.While not posing substantial technical climbing challenges on the standard route (other eight-thou-sanders such as K2 or Nanga Par-bat are much more difficult), Everest presents dangers such as altitude sickness, weather and wind. Mount Everest is said to be the tallest mountain on Earth. It literally means the top or the head of the sky. Mount Everest touches the borders of China, Tibet, and Nepal and is a part of the Himalayan Range. Its total height above sea level is 29,029 ft. During 1856, the name of Mount Everest was Peak XV. Its official name was given by the Geographical Society. But since this is only a brief information about Mount Everest, you can see the whole information on the Wikipedia about the Mount Everest.

This is the top of the Mount Everest. As you can see in the picture, there are two people there and their names are Claudia Bäumler and Hartmut Bielefeldt who reached the top of the mountain. It was really amazing because it is not that easy to reach the top of the mountain. And for your more information, it is really danger and difficult to reach the top of the mountain. One mistake, can cause your death. It is really cold there that is why you need to check first your condition if you can really manage or afford to reach the top or to undergo the top of the mountain. But it feels like heaven when you reach the top. You can also consider it an achievement because not all people can reach the top of Mount Everest.
