Mount Everest is the highest peak on Earth (8848 m) making mountaineers who have reached the summit the most adventurous in the world. Sir Edmond Hillary and Tenzing Norge Sherpa first climbed this peak on May 29, 1953, after a long and strenuous effort.
Everest Base Camp is situated on the Khumbu glacier at height of 18,000 ft. This is where all international Mt. Everest climbers assemble before and after their assent. Normally the climbing duration of this expedition lasts 90 days. The excitement among the climbers is very evident at the camp.

After the Base camp, we cross crevasses, sercs and black ice with the use of fixed ropes and aluminium ladders to reach Camp 1 at 6400 m.

Camp 1: 6,400 m
This camp is situated in a flat area of snow with endlessly deep crevasses and mountain walls. Because of the Sun’s reflection this camp is fairly warm. At night we can hear the deep murmuring as the crevasses crack beneath our tents.

Camp 2: 6,750 m
This camp is located at the foot of the icy Mount Lhotse wall. Generally the weather here is good, but occasionally clouds roll in from the lower range of the Himalayan valley. The wind here can become quite violent – enough to destroy our tents.

Camp 3: 7,100 m
Camp 3 is next to the Mount Lhotse wall. The climb over the Lhotse wall leads us to camp 4. Here we ascend steep bands of loose and down –slopping, rotten limestone. The route moves up the Geneva Spur to the east before finishing on the flats of the south col. Oxygen should probably be used above base camp 3.

Camp 4: 8,400 m
Camp 4 is the last camp of the Expedition. From here the summit is about 500 m. This is the final and most dangerous part of the climb. This place is besieged by ferocious and violent winds. The best way to reach the summit is via the narrow South – East Ridge and proceeding to the South Summit (28,710 ft.). Sir Edmond Hillary and Tenzing Norge Sherpa used this route in 1953.
