In un post emozionante su X, Yousuf ha condiviso i dettagli della sua impresa, programmata per Aprile o Maggio. ๐ธ Nato in Iraq e attualmente residente a Dubai, Yousuf ha un patrimonio netto dichiarato di oltre 300 milioni di dollari, grazie ai suoi investimenti precoci in Bitcoin, Ether e NFT. Ma questa sfida non riguarda solo il denaro: รจ una dichiarazione di principi, un simbolo di speranza per milioni di persone in tutto il mondo che lottano per ottenere una vera libertร finanziaria. ![Bitcoin Everest Ethereum Cripto 4.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcq272CZnkQtxhJZ5q2WeoQbDELi5EobN4mj7SQn8CKLo/Bitcoin%20Everest%20Ethereum%20Cripto%204.jpeg) ๐ธ Un Atto di Sostenibilitร Ambientale e Rispetto per la Montagna Sacra ๐ธ Ma Yousuf non trascura l'importanza della sostenibilitร ambientale. In un momento in cui l'eccesso di propaganda distoglie l'attenzione delle popolazioni occidentali dai reali problemi a cui andiamo in contro e dirottano tutti i cambiamenti politici attraverso terrorismo psicologico sulla fine di un ecosistema fragile a causa dell'attivitร umana, anche lo slogan di Yousuf sarร di grande impatto mediatico e quindi si impegna a lasciare solo impronte, portando via con sรฉ non solo la bandiera, ma anche ogni traccia di rifiuto. La sua missione รจ un inno alla conservazione dell'ambiente e alla responsabilitร ecologica. ๐ธ "Preservare l'ambiente incontaminato dell'Everest รจ fondamentale per me", ha dichiarato Yousuf. "Mi impegno a garantire un impatto minimo e a lasciare solo impronte". ๐ธ Bitcoin: Una Forza per il Cambiamento ๐ธ Per Yousuf, Bitcoin non รจ solo una criptovaluta, ma un catalizzatore per il cambiamento. Il suo viaggio coincide con l'avvicinarsi del Bitcoin al suo massimo storico, un segno tangibile del potere trasformativo della moneta digitale. Ma la sua missione va oltre il prezzo dell'asset: รจ un invito a tutti noi a esplorare le potenzialitร di un sistema finanziario piรน equo e accessibile per tutti. ๐ธ Un'Impresa Condivisa: Storie di Coraggio nell'Alpinismo Crypto ๐ธ Yousuf non รจ il primo a portare le criptovalute in cima alle montagne. Nel 2018, un trio di appassionati di crypto ha tentato di posizionare un wallet Ledger sull'Everest, ma un tragico incidente ha interrotto il loro viaggio. Nel 2023, un altro scalatore ha finanziato il suo viaggio sul monte Kilimanjaro con Bitcoin, dimostrando il potere della criptovaluta nel promuovere l'alfabetizzazione finanziaria. ๐ธ Unisciti alla Rivoluzione: Segui l'Impresa di Yousuf e Condividi la Tua Storia ๐ธ Mentre Yousuf si prepara per la sua epica scalata, possiamo tutti prendere parte alla rivoluzione Bitcoin. Condividi la sua storia, ispira gli altri a lottare per la libertร finanziaria e unisciti alla nostra community Telegram per rimanere aggiornato su questa incredibile avventura.

![kami rita.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmStFG94mTcR3tUrfFocrwaSKEqMdRraHNW6m8A7t2oZdT/kami%20rita.jpg) *(photo/wikimedia)* **A Sherpa or Mount Everest climbing guide named Kami Rita broke his record in the most climbs on the top of Everest. Kami Rita successfully set foot on the highest point in the world 26 times.** The Sherpa, a man from Nepal, reached the 8,849-meter summit on Saturday evening, May 7, 2022 evening by leading a group of Sherpa climbers who put ropes along the route. This rope will be used by hundreds of other climbers and guides to reach the top of the mountain by the end of this month. Kami Rita, as reported by the AP news agency, along with 10 other Sherpa guides reached the summit without any problems and returned safely to the lower camps on Sunday, May 8, 2022. The hiking route used by Kami Rita was pioneered by a New Zealander, Sir Edmund Hillary, and a Nepalese sherpa, Tenzing Norgay, in 1953. To this day, the trail continues to be the most popular way to climb Mount Everest. Meanwhile, Kami Rita's group reached the summit at around 19.00 local time, which according to the standards of climbing Everest was too late. At night, there is a risk of worsening weather conditions and hikers getting lost while descending. Hundreds of foreign climbers and an equal number of guides will try to climb Everest this May 2022. May is the best month to climb Everest because it has the best weather conditions. There are usually only a few times of good weather at the highest part of the mountain in May that allow climbers to reach the summit. Kami Rita, a 52-year-old man, first climbed Everest in 1994 and have traveled almost every year since then. He is one of the many Sherpas whose expertise and skills are critical to the safety and success of the foreign climbers who go to Nepal every year to stand on top of the mountain. Kami Rita's father was one of the first Sherpas. Kami Rita followed in his father's footsteps. In addition to the 26 summits of Everest, Kami Rita has climbed several other peaks that are among the highest in the world, including K-2, Cho-Oyu, Manaslu, and Lhotse. "Kami Rita has broken his record and set a new world record in climbing," said Taranath Adhikari, director general of Nepal's tourism department in Kathmandu's capital, Taranath Adhikari. In 2022, Nepal issued 316 permits to climb Mount Everest in the peak season that lasts until May. The Himalayan country relies heavily on climbers for foreign exchange. However, Everest's too many permits have been criticized for causing overcrowding and several climbers killed in 2019. Everest has been climbed 10,657 times since it was first climbed in 1953 from the Nepalese and Tibetan sides. According to data from the Himalayas, 311 people have died since the ascent opened in 1953.

The elevation of Mount Everest is 8848.86 meters (29,031.7 feet) above sea level. It was recently measured in 2020 with the authority of Nepal and the China governments. The mountain was named after George Everest, a former Surveyor General of India. Its Nepali name is โSagarmathaโ meaning โThe head of great blue skyโ. Likewise, the Tibetan name of Everest is โChomolungpaโ meaning โHoly Motherโ We've given our best to present 30 interesting and amazing facts about Mount Everest and climbing it for your information and entertainment. Hope you enjoy it and maybe you'll consider coming to see it yourself... 1. The Name Everest Was Originally Proposed By Andrew Waugh The most renowned mountain was named after George Everest who was the British Surveyor General of India. But, the original idea of naming Everest was by Andrew (Scott) Waugh. Andrew Waugh was a British Army Officer and Surveyor General of India who served under Sir George Everest. He was willing to give a different name to the mountain because he wanted to preserve the local name. On the other side, every mountain has its local name (e.g. Annapurna, Dhaulagiri). So, he decided to name it after his superior. After Sir Waughโs decision, there was an argument going on about the name. Everest himself and the Royal Geographical Society deny the name cause it was hard to pronounce for Indian natives and could not be written in Hindi. Sir Waugh even proposed a name after the refusal. In 1865, The Royal Geographical Society officially accepted the name of the highest peak in the world as โMount Everestโ. 2. China And Nepal Are The Owners Of Mount Everest. Are you wondering where is Mt Everest Located? The summit of Mt Everest is on the border of Nepal and China. The southern side is owned by Nepal and the Northern side by China. It might be interesting cause it is one of the coolest borders in the world. Above all, Nepal and China are the owners of Mount Everest. Since Mt Everest belongs to Nepal and China, both countries have access to the top of the world. Both countries share eye-catching views of Everest. It does not matter where you observe the mountain it is equally beautiful. Nepal has Kalapatthar; which will climb during Everest Base Camp Trek and Gokyo Ri & 5th Lake for the best view and Tibet has the Tibetan Plateau to admire Everest. Mount Everest has two main climbing routes, the South Col route, and the North Col route. There are other alternative routes but these are frequently used routes. Among the two routes, the South Col route is easier whereas North Col is comparatively longer and more technical. Similarly, the North Col route is a summit from Tibet, and the South Col route from Nepal. 3. Mount Everest Is Technically NOT The Tallest! Yes, technically Mount Everest is not the tallest mountain. Everest has a height of 8848 meters above sea level. Hawaiiโs Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain base-to-peak at the height of 10,210 meters but only 4,205 meters above sea level. Mauna Kea is the dormant volcano island of Hawaii. It is the highest point in the state of Hawaii as well as the second tallest peak on the Island in the world. Some authorities have leveled Mauna Kea as the tallest in the world, from its base beneath sea level. Moreover, it is the only Hawaiian Volcano with evidence of glaciers. As mentioned above, Mauna Kea is 4,205 meters above sea level. If the altitude is measured from base to peak then, Mount Everest wonโt be standing as the tallest mountain in the world. 4. Mount Everest Is Now 8,848.86 Meters High. We have already discussed the altitude of Mount Everest. The Foreign Ministers of Nepal and China have confirmed the new height of Mout Everest at 8848.86 meters above sea level. The mountain has increased by 86 centimeters. Before it was 8848 meters. The height of Everest was measured by the Survey of India in 1954. Since then, the height was globally accepted as 8848 meters above sea level. Whereas, China claimed the height of Everest as 8844 meters. In 1999, the US team even measured the height higher at the elevation of 8850 meters which was sponsored by the National Geographic Society, US. After the earthquake in 2015, the new height of Everest was the topic of curiosity for scientists around the world. With the joint authority of China and Nepal, the process to measure new height was forwarded. In 2020, the official height was confirmed at an altitude of 8848.86 meters above sea level. 5. Mount Everest Rises 40 cm Per Century! The peak of Mount Everest is gradually increasing by approximately 40 centimeters per century. This phenomenon is caused by the uplifting of the Eurasian Plate by the Indian Plate sliding underneath which results in an uplift of the Himalayas. The process can be broken by natural calamities like earthquakes. About 50 million years ago, the Indian Plate collided with Eurasian Plate which formed The Himalayas and The Tibetan Plateau. The process continues today, which means the mountains are growing eventually every year. In 1954, the Survey of India measured the height of Everest at 8848 meters. Recently, in 2020 the new height of Everest was confirmed at 8848.86 meters. Compared to the past century, the mountain has gained 86 centimeters now. Some experts have claimed that the earthquake in 2015 has played a vital role in the increment of the height. 6. Mount Everest Has Two Heights. With the latest survey in 2020, the authorities have presented two different heights of Everest. It might sound weird that a single mountain with two different heights. However, both heights are logically correct. The heights of Everest are described below: 8,848.86 meters: The height is also called snow height. The height is measured along with the surface covered with snow or ice. The height was officially recognized by China and Nepal governments in 2020. 8,844.43 meters: It is the geological height of Everest. Also, recognized as the โrock heightโ. The rock height is measured without any snow or ice. It was measured by China. Later, it was confirmed by Nepal too. 7. Everest's Summit is Not The Farthest Point From The Earth Center. Mount Everest is without any doubt the highest mountain in the world. Although standing as the tallest peak, it is not the farthest point from the earthโs center. Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador, South America has the farthest point from the earthโs center. Earth is not a perfect sphere. The shape of the earth is particularly oval having thicker at the equator. And that is where Mount Chimborazo is located making it the radically farthest point. However, the mountain is just 6,263 meters above sea level. It is 2,585 meters below the summit of Mt Everest. If you want to stand on top of the world Mount Everest is a perfect choice. But, if you want to stand closer to the Moon then, Mount Chimborazo is what you should choose. Letโs not forget, that the distance between the summit of both mountains from the earthโs center is around 2.5 kilometers. 8. Mount Everest Is About 60 Million Years Old. โWhat is the age of Mount Everest?โ is always a hot topic to discuss. No one knows the actual age. But according to some research and experts, it is estimated that the age of Everest is around 60 million years ago the time when the Himalayas was formed due to the collision of the Eurasian Plate and Indian Plate. In 1924, Noel Odell became the first person to discover marine fossils on Mount Everest. The statement proves that the mountain was under the ocean before the Eurasian and Indian plate collision. More than that, the limestone and sandstone on the summit were considered to be submarine sedimentary rocks. Also, it is estimated that it can be approximately 450 million years old. However, geologists have considered that Mount Everest is 60 million years old the time when the Himalayas was formed. 9. Everestโs Climate Is One Of The Harshest In The World. Everest has one of the harshest climates in the world. How wouldnโt it be, with unimaginable altitude and all you see is glaciers and snowy mountains. Above 5,300 meters the mountains are capped with snow and ice all year round. Violent storms with strong winds are common. If you ever dream of Everest Base Camp and Everest Expedition you should always wear protective gear as required. The warmest temperature ever recorded on the summit of Everest is -20ยฐC. People who head for Everest Expedition must wear specially-designed warm clothes to prevent exposure and frostbite as well as goggles to prevent snow blindness. Sometimes the weather can be challenging and deadly. Everest climate is one of the extremes. The temperature can drop up to -60ยฐC. Cold is still acceptable with the essential equipment and gears. Another harsh challenge of Everest is hurricane-force wind. The highest wind force recorded is 285 km/h. Somehow, the wind stays clams in May and that is the month every climber tries to summit Everest. 10. Nothing Lives On The Top Of Mount Everest. There is no sign of life on the top of Mount Everest. Also, nothing lives on the summit. How could it support life when the temperature is always below -20ยฐC. Also, there is no source of food to survive. Harsh weather and lack of oxygen are other reasons for not supporting life on the top of the world. Surprisingly, there is life below 6,700 meters. The Himalayan Jumping Spider is a small and toxic jumping spider that can live up to 6,700 meters above sea level. It is the only highest known permanent resident on earth. Below the altitude of 6,000 meters, you can spot other animals such as Snow Leopard, Himalayan Tahr, and Himalayan Yak. At an altitude of 5,167 meters, Gorakshep is located where hotels and lodges are available. Plus, it is the highest point you can find a human settlement on Everest. However, there is no life on the top of Mout Everest. 11. Dead Bodies Are A Common Scene On Mount Everest. When climbers die climbing Everest, their bodies are left on the mountain. It is almost impossible to bury a dead body due to ice-hard ground. Dragging or carrying dead bodies requires more physical effort and causes short of oxygen. So, dead bodies are a common scene on Mount Everest. It is believed that there are over 200 dead bodies on Mount Everest. No one is sure about the exact number yet. Two-thirds of the people who had died while climbing is still resting in peace on Mount Everest. The rescue of a corpse can cost $40,000 to $80,000. If you ever tried to summit Everest, for sure you can encounter some of the corpses en route. Likewise, there are some famous bodies. โGreen bootsโ is one of the famous images. He was identified later as he was Tsewang Paljor from India. (Green Boots. Picture credit to Wikipedia) 12. About 300 People Have Died On Mount Everest. While climbing Mount Everest, climbers face life-threatening obstacles and every step is a risk. As of January 2021, the study has stated that 305 people have died while attempting the summit of Everest. Also, the majority of corpses are still there. The major causes of death are avalanches, hypoxia, exhaustion, and hypothermia. Some of the rare events like falls and other absurd accidents are also the reason for some deaths. Khumbu Icefall is one of the deadliest zones on the way to the summit. It is said that the glacier has claimed most of the lives. Our deepest sympathy to all of the beautiful souls who rested on Mount Everest. 13. The Average Death Rate Is About 1% On Mount Everest. As we have talked about before that over 300 people have died while summiting Mount Everest. Over 5,000 people have already submitted to the top of the world. Although the number of deads is increasing, relatively the death rate has decreased below 1%. According to the database of BBC, between the years 1970-1990 have most death rate ever recorded. BBC has stated that most of the deaths occurred by the avalanche and then by altitude sickness. After 1990 the success rate increased vastly and hence, the death rate decreased. 14. The Death Zone Is Above 8,000 Meters. The death zone is defined as the region above 8,000 meters on Mount Everest. At such a high altitude, the oxygen concentration is very low. Normally, at residential altitude, the air consists of 20% oxygen due to air pressure. Above 6,000 meters, there is still 10% oxygen. But when you cross 8,000 meters then the oxygen level drops to 8%. When you reach above 8,000 meters you are breathing 12% less oxygen than usual. In which supplemental oxygen is very important. Without supplemental oxygen, one can just survive for a few minutes. Also, consequences can turn for the worst. At an altitude of 8,000 meters, your body cannot acclimatize or sustain itself. Your body will slowly die because of hypoxia and Hypothermia. Thatโs why it is called Death Zone. 15. There Is A "2 O'clock Rule" When Climbing Mount Everest. Every climber follows the 2 oโclock rule when climbing Mount. Due to harsh and unpredictable weather, climbers must reach the summit by 2 pm. The result can be devastating. You can get caught in the death zone and fall short of reaching back to camp. In addition, it gets dark sooner and falling temperature is another issue too. Furthermore, there is tragedy story about Mount Everest. In 1996, Rob Hall and Scott Fischer along with their team attempted the summit. But they miscalculated and made poor decisions. They successfully summited Mount Everest however they ignore the consequences of descending. The tragedy happens on the way back to their camp. Later, Fischer described it as the โ2 oโclock rule. It means that the climber should reach the summit of Mount Everest before 2 pm. If a group cannot reach the summit before 2 oโclock then they must abandon the summit and proceed to descend before itโs too late. 16. Jon Krakauer Reached Everest's Peak But His Team Was Lost "Into Thin Air". Jon Krakauer is an American writer and was a reporter for Outside magazine. In 1996, Krakauer followed a mountaineering team to climb Mount Everest. He and his team successfully reach the summit. However, he did come back safely but his 8 members died while descending. They were all caught in blizzard weather on their way back. In 1997, Krakauer publish the book โInto Thin Airโ in which he wrote the truth of the disaster. It is also recorded as one of the deadliest Everest disasters in history. After that in 2014, 16 Sherpas were killed by an avalanche. In the following year 2015, the earthquake killed 22 climbers who successfully summited and return to base camp making it the deadliest Everest disaster. 17. The Movie "Everest" Was Partially Filmed On Mount Everest. We have just talked about the Everest disaster โInto Thin Airโ in 1996. The book was later presented in movie title as โEverestโ. The movie shows the true story of the mountain disaster in a realistic version. Talking about the movie, only some parts of the action were filmed on Everest. Most of the scenes were filmed in studios. The movie โEverestโ was released in 2015. Although the movie is based on the true story of Everest, the movie was filmed partially in Everest Region. Pinewood Studios from England is in charge of making the movie. The scene of Lukla Airport, Namche Bazaar, and Everest Base Camp was filmed in Nepal. In 2014, when the second unit shooting crew went for shooting to Camp II, the avalanche struck killing 16 Sherpas. However, the filming crew remained unharmed because they were not there where the disaster took place. Later, the movie was completely filmed on greenscreen with CG imagery from studios. 18. Francys Arsentiev Is Known As โSleeping Beauty On Mount Everestโ. Francys Arsentiev is the first woman from America to reach the summit of Mount Everest without any oxygen supply. Sadly, she died on the way back due to Hypothermia and Cerebral Edema. Since then, she has been sleeping on Everest. And then she is recognized as โSleeping Beauty on Mount Everestโ. In 1998, Francys Arsentiev along with her husband Sergei Arsentiev set off for Everest Expedition. They were climbing without oxygen so they slowly ascended to the summit which force them to say a night above 8,000 meters. At the time of descending, she was not in good condition. On the way down some Uzbek Expedition Team found her body lying on snow still attach to a guide rope. At that time, Arsentiev was 40 years old and she had a son. She was such a bold and brave woman. Her corpse is nicknamed โSleeping Beautyโ. 19. Everest Has Been Summited Over 9,000 Times. Isnโt it an interesting fact that the worldโs highest mountain has been summited over 9,000 times? The first record of the summit of Everest was in 1953 by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa. Since then, more than 5,000 people have stood on top of the world over 9,000 times. Among them, some of the Sherpas have climbed more than once. In 2018, around 800 people have summited Everest breaking the record of most people summited in a single year. The previous record was in 2013 when 667 people summited Everest. Interestingly, there were not any expeditions recorded in 1974. Two routes are frequently in practice by the climbers. One is from Nepal and another from Tibet. Up to date, 66% have been summited from Nepal which is South Col, and the remaining 34% from the Tibet side known as North Col. 20. Kami Rita Sherpa Has Climbed Mount Everest The Most Times. Kami Rita Sherpa is a Sherpa guide who reached the summit for the 25th time on May 7, 2021, making the record for climbing Mount Everest the most times. He breaks his own record which he held in May 2018. Moreover, He has another record for the most 8,000 meters summit. Along with Mount Everest, he has summited 38 times. In which, Kami Rita climbed Everest 25 times, Cho Oyo 8 times, Manaslu 3 times, and Lhotse and K2 just once. Likewise, Kami Rita Sherpa, age 52, climbed Mount Everest (8,848.86m) for the 26th time to wear out his own record for the most climbs of the world's highest peak. The Sherpa reached the top at 18:55 local time, Saturday, May 7th-2022 along with other 10 Sherpas through the southeast ridge route. Not only himself, but Ritaโs father was also a professional Sherpa climbing guide. Likewise, his brother is also a climbing guide and has already scaled Mount Everest 17 times. 21. Mount Everest Has Many Firsts And Climbing Records. With all those interesting facts, we try to present some records created by legendary people on Mount Everest. Mount Everest was first summited on May 29, 1953, by Sir Edmund Hillary, a New Zealand mountaineer, and a Sherpa from Nepal Tenzing Norgay. They scale Everest from South Col Route. A Chinese mountaineers group of Wang Fuzhou, Gong Bu, and Qu Yinhua became the first Chinese to summit Mount Everest in 1960. It was also the first summit of the South Col Route from Tibet. Junko Tabei, a Japanese woman, became the first woman to climb Mount Everest in 1975. Also, she became the first woman to ascend to all Seven summits in 1992. On May 1, 1963, Jim Whittaker became the first American to summit Mount Everest alongside his Sherpa guide Nawang Gombu. Erik Weihenmayer was the first blind person to reach the summit in 2001. A Nepalese couple, Pem Dorje and Moni Mulepati got married on the summit of Mount Everest in 2005 and became the first people to get married on the top of the world. On May 8, 2008, the Beijing Olympic torch arrived on Mount Everest at 9:17 am, marking the first time in human history that the Olympic torch had been carried to the world's highest peak and the highest place to hand on the torch in the Olympic history. Jordan Romero from America took the youngest climber to reach the summit record on May 22, 2010, at 13 years and 345 days old. 22. An Average Everest Climber Needs 35 Hours Of Bottled Oxygen. According to Nepal National Mountain Guide Association, they have stated that on average a climber use 7 bottles of supplemental oxygen for both up and down. Each bottle can last up to 5 hours. So, it means that a climber needs 35 hours of bottled oxygen. Without oxygen, we cannot even survive for a minute. Oxygen is very important to function your body properly. It oxidizes the food and releases energy to work. When oxygen levels drop in the human body, it can cause heavy breathing and headaches. In other cases, it can malfunction the brain and heart too. Above 5,000 meters, the oxygen level drops half of the sea level. As altitude increases, the oxygen level decreases. When a person reaches above 7,000 meters and 8,000 meters (Death Zone), supplemental oxygen is mandatory. Make sure to check 15 important tips before trekking to Everest Base Camp. Hope it might make you stress-free for your next trip. 23. Tons Of Human Poop Are Frozen On Mount Everest. The campaign to cleaner Everest has estimated that about 8,000 kilograms of human feces have been left on Mount Everest. It is making a serious issue on health and environmental problems. Feces does not decompose at the frozen higher altitude. Now, mountaineers have to carry human waste from the mountain. The rule has been implemented but still, the system is problematic. Some of the porters and Sherpas have mentioned that they were not able to carry the extra weight of waste due to harsh weather, altitude, and slippery slopes. Experts have said that the excrements have threatened the water resource of the mountain. The drinking water that climbers are using is contaminated with human feces. Aftermath, they suffer from a stomach illness. Some experts have said that it can even affect drinking water resources where humans are inhabitants. 24. Everest Climbers Pee And Poop In Their Tents If They Canโฆ Just now, we discussed the topic of waste and human feces on Mount Everest. Using a toilet on the mountain is a matter of curiosity. Some climbers build tent toilets whereas some of them pee and poop in their tents. Climbers carry disposable bags for bodily waste and bottles for pee which they have to bring back. Also, some of the climbers wear diapers. It takes more time than you expected to build a tent on the mountain. Then, digging latrines on the frozen ground is out of the question because it takes more effort. Also, exposing skin in the frozen zone can cause frostbite and hypothermia in other scenarios. So, it is reasonable to use the tent for excrement. As we talked about before, human waste has been an issue of complication. The waste carried from Mount Everest is dumped at Gorakshep, a frozen lake bed. It is at a high risk of contaminating drinking water streams. In 2003, a mountaineer, Garry Porter, propose a solution to the problem as the waste can be turned into fertilizer and methane gas for cooking. 25. It Takes 10 Weeks To Climb Mount Everest. Climbing Mount Everest? Well, it is not just a normal adventure. It can take 10 weeks or more than 2 months to reach the summit and descend successfully. All those times are utilized for acclimatization to adapt your body to higher altitudes. Also, waiting for good weather can consume some extra time too. Everest Base Camp is at the height of 5,364 meters which only takes some days to reach, not even 2 weeks. The majority of days are spent on the climbing route. It does not require much time to reach the summit but what goes up must come down. So, jointly (ascending and descending) can take up to 2 months. In some cases, it can take more than that. Here is one of the interesting facts. On 21 May 2004, Pemba Dorje Sherpa ascended the summit of Mount Everest at the time of 8 hours 10 minutes, creating a world record for the fastest ascent on the top of the world. 26. It Takes At Least 30,000 USD To Climb Mount Everest. It is a common question among hodophile and nature enthusiasts โHow much does it cost to climb Mount Everest?โ. It takes at least 30,000 USD to climb Mount Everest. The cost can be higher or even can cost less. The cost can depend upon the standard, days, Sherpas, and other expenses. The normal cost range can be from $30,000 to $85,000. The fully custom expedition can cost up to $115,000 or even more. A climber must pay $11,000 to Nepal Government for the permit to climb Mount Everest. Normally, the cost includes transportation, camps/tents, Sherpas, food, and supplemental oxygen. Other expenses while Everest Expedition is personal equipment and gear. You need to spend from $6,000 to $8,000, according to the quality of your equipment. 27. Sherpas Are The Best Guides On Mount Everest. Whenever it comes to scaling mighty mountains, one thing that strikes our mind is โSherpasโ. From the first person to climb Mount Everest (Tenzing Norgay Sherpa) to date, Sherpas have been assisting to climb your favorite mountains. Without a question, Sherpas are the best guide in the world. Sherpas are the ethnic group of Nepal native to the mountain region of Nepal. Not only Nepal, but some of them are also scattered around Tibet, India, and Bhutan. They are renowned for climbing mountains and endurance at higher altitudes. Sherpas are the people who can climb Everest without supplemental oxygen. For past centuries, Sherpas have been providing guide service for mountaineering teams. Also, it has been the main source of income for them. Apart from guiding, Sherpas also provide porter service for an expedition. 28. Sherpa Guides Get Paid US $5,000 Upwards For An Expedition. A moment ago, we just talked about the legacy of the Sherpa guide. They are the best climbing guide to choose from. Ever wonder how much a Sherpa guide costs? Well, Sherpa guides get paid $5,000 for two month's expedition. As mentioned before, the climbing guide is the main source of income for Sherpas. Sherpas who lead the expedition team earn around $2,000 to $5,000. The price differs depending on the time interval of the expedition. Whereas Western guides make $50,000 at the same time. Sherpas have good skills in climbing mountains. Moreover, they are life-saving while climbing to the summit. They are pretty much strong and help to carry your supplies along with other equipment too. Trust me, Sherpas are not ordinary people. 29. Helicopters Can't Fly To The Top Of Mount Everest. Helicopters need a certain density of air to lift and fly. Generally, helicopters can fly up to 5,000 meters. But on Mount Everest, the air density is very thin. Therefore, the helicopter can not fly to the top of Mount Everest. Typically, helicopters are designed to fly a short distance and relatively lower altitude than planes. In addition, helicopters fly by rotating blades. Some high-performance helicopters can fly to Gorekshep as well as to Everest Base Camp too. The interesting fact is there is only one gentleman, Didier Delsalle landed a helicopter on the summit of Everest in 2005. If you want to admire Everest, then Everest Base Camp Trek with Heli can be ideal for you. We, Nepal Mother House, provide all the services you want with undeniable offers. 30. Planes Can Fly Over Mount Everest. Yes! The plane can fly over Mount Everest. Todayโs aircraft can take flight at an altitude of 8,000 to 10,000 meters. Most commercial airplanes have a certified maximum elevation of 12,000 meters to 13,000 meters. Flying over Mount Everest is not a big deal, however, flight routes donโt travel through Everest. The unpredictable weather increases the risk of turbulence. Hurricane-force wind and snowstorms are the main reason for making Everest a no-fly zone. The closest airport to Everest is Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla which is at the height of 2,860 meters. It is situated 60 km away from the summit. It is one of the most dangerous airports in the world. We just present you with the 30 interesting facts about Mount Everest. Hope you like our presentation. If you or your friends/family ever consider visiting Everest Base Camp to witness Everest, Nepal Mother House is always at your service.
Nepal, a country located at Asia, lying along the southern slopes of the Himalayan mountain ranges. It is a landlocked country located between two greatest and biggest neighbor with different language and different culture, ethics and traditions, India to the east, south, and west and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. Its territory extends roughly 500 miles (800 kilometers) from east to west and 90 to 150 miles from north to south. The capital is Kathmandu [also known as the city of temples]. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmc5VRPtW3YZV9h7LHGapJt9C35y1xLCzpjgKQdMKihKZY/image.png) What is Nepal famous for? The answer for this question have many list, what Nepal is famous for. Small country located in the center of two giant neighbor and having highest mountains in north and the plain terai region to the southern part of nepal had giften Nepal worlds most suitable climate. Kathmandu had been the worlds most best climate center, where each 12 month consists of different climates and temperatures, that charisma had made nepal rich in its bio diversity as well as rich in culture. But today we are going to explain one of the most renowned topic, for which nepal is famous for. Mountains: Do you know? Nepal along holds the worlds 8 highest peaks above 8,000 meters. So if you are new for this fact, then lets explore about Nepal's mountains. ---------------------------------------- Mount Everest ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeNeZNwAMCJvQhstK5wnNUgnctgfyZYkE5JTbGPj3k1Db/image.png) [photo: Mount Everest 8848 meter] The country on the southern slopes of the Himalayas is home to eight of the world's ten highest peaks, including Mount Everest (8,848m) on the border between Nepal and Tibet. Everest is also known as "Sagarmatha" in Nepal and "Chhomolongma" in Tibet. Although it is the tallest mountain and attracts many climbers of both advanced and limited climbing skill, it is one of the easier mountains to climb. Mt. Everest was first summated by Nepali Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and new Zealand climber Mr. Edmond Hillary with a British expedition in 1953 from the South Col route. Climbing Mt. Everest is the aim of many people in their life. ______________________________________ Mt. Kangchenjunga ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmc6A8VaESXioN9ihukzyTEghFMiGtKg2iUHAW9RbEsu7k/image.png) Mount Kangchenjunga is the third highest mountain in the world with the height of 8,586m (26,169 ft).

It is located at the border between Tibet (China) and the Khumbu region of Nepal. Mount Lhotse was first climbed in 18 May,1956 by Mr. Fritz Luchsinger and Ernst Reiss from Switzerland. Mt. Lhotse is becoming famous for its tremendous and dramatic South face. The South face raises 3.2 km and is 2.25 km wide making it the steepest face of this size in the world. Lhotse is is registered as one of the most extremely difficult climbs and is rarely attempted. __________________________________ Makalu ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRUPU5iVDUDsYb2sFuA3Mtm1sR2MiKdoBeQ6vPvLcG9Ls/image.png) Mount Makalu is the fifth highest mountain in the world with the height of 8,481 metres (27,825 ft). It is located 19 km (12 mi) southeast of Mount Everest, on the border between Nepal and China. Mt Makalu was first climbed by an American team led by William Siri in the spring of 1954. The South East Ridge and the Northwest Ridgeare the main climbing routes on Mt. Makalu. It is located at the co-ordinates of 27ยฐ53โ21โ N and 87ยฐ05โ27โ E in the eastern part of Nepal. ___________________________________ Cho Oyu ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbSAktxf1XBnUEvhh1sRf3wcJW3NchfuwyshRftfcreT7/image.png) Mount Cho Oyu is the sixth highest mountain in the world. It is located in Nepal-China border in Nepal. Cho Oyu means โTurquoise Goddessโ in Tibetan. The mountain is the westernmost major peak of the Khumbu sub-section of the Mahalangur Himalaya 20 km west of Mount Everest. Cho Oyu is known as being one of the easiest of the 8,000 meter peaks due to its straight forward approach and lack of objective dangers. Mount Cho-Oyu was first climbed on on October 19, 1954 by Australian Joseph Joechler, Herbert Tichy (Italy), Pasang Dawa Lama (Nepal). _________________________________________________ Dhaulagiri ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmY3iaQAi5JhgARxR2KAhKQTySi9KLcD46da1rAsxNXWyP/image.png) Mount Dhaulagiri is the seventh highest mountain in the world with the height of 26,795 feet /8,167 meters. It is located just north of central Nepal. The name Dhaulagiri comes from the Sanskrit word where Dhawala means โDazzling, White Beautifulโ and Giri means โMountainโ. The normal climbing route for Dhaulagiri is the Northeast ridge. The exact coordinates are: 28ยฐ41โ48โN, Latitude and 83ยฐ29โ42โE Longitude.

Mount Everest has claimed the lives of nearly 200 climbers. Many of the remains remain to act as a terrible reminder for those who come after. ![image.png](https://img.blurt.world/blurtimage/praneeth123/f4b6c69f82742a0eedaa9bcb6ac436c5c16e1076.png) Mount Everest is the world's tallest peak, but many people are unaware of its other, more terrible title: the world's largest open-air graveyard. Over 4,000 people have followed in Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's footsteps since 1953, when they first topped the summit, risking the harsh environment and perilous terrain for a few minutes of glory. Climbers who do succeed are generally left with long-term consequences. Those that are unlucky are left where they fall. ![image.png](https://img.blurt.world/blurtimage/praneeth123/880bf35b0c0c1b3ea9727150233404f25a7bc3c6.png) The standard approach is to simply leave the deceased where they died, thus these bodies will stay on the mountainside for all eternity, acting as a warning to climbers as well as horrible mile markers. https://allthatsinteresting.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/george-mallory.jpg Almost every climber walked past one of the most renowned corpses, known as "Green Boots," on their way to the death zone. Green Boots' identity is disputed, however it is usually assumed that he is Tsewang Paljor, an Indian climber who died in 1996. ![image.png](https://img.blurt.world/blurtimage/praneeth123/38c95e9b5b4c5c5756ec47ddeb7d29fb7cdc22f9.png) When someone dies on Everest, especially in the death zone, retrieving the body is nearly difficult. The weather, geography, and a lack of oxygen make it impossible to reach the bodies. Even if they are discovered, they are generally frozen to the ground.

What Happens When You Get to the Top of Mount Everest? ![mountains-5689996 (1).jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmchgrnL9dYSFSaez1sm4uLUFpMuogCk2zcn3KLKETie34/mountains-5689996%20(1).jpg) On May 10, 1953, New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first climbers to reach the top of Mount Everest. Climbing the tallest mountain in the world is not just physically challenging โ itโs also expensive, time-consuming, and logistically complicated. Most climbers who attempt this feat use a guide service, which usually costs between $30,000 and $100,000 depending on their services and whether or not you go with an alpine style climb that involves fixed ropes as opposed to an ascent style climb that involves no fixed ropes or support. Why you should climb Everest Everest is one of the most amazing places on Earth. But if youโre not a professional climber, it can be difficult to put together a successful expedition. Here are five tips that can help you turn your dream into reality! Before you climb Mount Everest Before you can begin your trek up Mount Everest, youโll need a permit from Nepal's Ministry of Tourism. There are also a number of routes that take visitors to different areas on Everest: Base Camp, Camp II, Camp III, Camp IV, and Advanced Base Camp. Keep in mind that no matter which path you choose for your climb, it will be strenuousโand above 8500m (roughly 27,750 feet), very cold. Climbing through Base Camp Base Camp is located 17,600 feet above sea level. Itโs also where you begin acclimating your body to higher altitudes. Climbers spend two weeks sleeping here before tackling higher elevations. Many use it as a jump-off point for expeditions up other Himalayan peaks like Kanchenjunga and Lhotse, which is connected via a pass just west of Base Camp. Above Base Camp โ High camp, Advance base camp, and Camp 4 There are literally hundreds, maybe thousands, of different routes up and down Mt. Everest, but there is really only one place you need to be at a certain time. Above Base Camp in time for sunrise. And not only do you need to get there in time for sunrise, you also want to be on your way back down before it gets dark or colder than it already is at 8300 meters/27590 feet above sea level. The Final Summit push Upon reaching 29,035 feet (the actual summit), there are three primary options. The first is to turn around and head back down. More people have reached Base Camp than have summited, so itโs very common for those who do reach the top to retreat back down in order to get enough energy and rest before making another attempt. The second option is simply laying down and relaxing with a camera. Back down from the summit Most climbers will tell you thereโs no greater adrenaline rush than summiting, that moment when you reach your goal. But as every climber will also tell you, what happens next is a little anticlimactic. There are still several thousand feet (and hours) left on your journey. Lessons Learned While climbing Mt. Everest is clearly a monumental achievement, reaching its peak doesnโt mean that youโve conquered all. As Hillary said, It takes longer to get down than it does to get up...because you canโt walk down. So I learned that if anything happened at the top of that mountain, we would have been in real trouble because there was no way back down unless somebody came and got us. That changed my thinking about mountaineering from then on.
