Mt.
Everest Expedition
Sir Edmund
Hillary and late Tenzing Norgay became
the first climbers under Sir John Hunt's
expedition team to reach the summit
of Mt. Everest together in May 29,1953
by the south Col route. This route is
technically straight forward and risk
involving.
The World's
highest mountain, Mt. Everest (8848m)
is known by the name of Sagarmatha in
Nepal and Chomolungma in China.
Everest
base camp is situated on the Khumbu
glacier at the height of 5455m.Normally,
the climbing duration of the expedition
lasts for 3 months. After crossing the
Base camp you can climb for camp 1.
Camp
1 (6400m): It is located at
the flat area of endless snow-deep crevasses
and mountain ridge. During the daytime
this place is warm due to direct sun's
reflection. At night we hear the murmuring
cracking sounds of crevasses beneath
your tent. From here we have to walk
camp 2.
Camp
2 (6750m): This camp is located
at the foot of the icy Lhotse wall through
which we have to walk ahead amidst the
violent, raging winds and sometimes
cloudy weather.
Camp
3 (7100m): This camp is adjoined
to Lhotse wall. After climbing the Lhotse
wall by using fixed rope and prior acclimatization
we proceed to camp 4.
Camp
4 (8400m): This is the last
camp of the Everest Expedition. From
here summit is 500m, distance far. It
is the final and dangerous part of the
climbing. Here, the wind blows violently.
The normal route to reach the summit
is through the narrow south - east ridge
and it precedes the south summit 8700m.
