Mt. Everest's landscape is how you would guess it to be, icy. Mt. Everest's bottom landscape is covered in snow and the top is forzen and extremely cold. I am not sure of the exact temeperature, but you would freeze to death if you stayed at the top for too long.

∙ 9y agoThe highest part of the summit is about the size of pool table where only around half a dozen climbers can stand at any one time. Nearly all climbers tag this high point and then sit or stand a little lower down where there is more room to move around to take that exclusive summit photograph and to take in the stunning view, providing the weather is on their side.
Depending on what route you arrive from at the summit you will find that the angle at the top of the world is anywhere between 30 and 80 degrees, steep, but there are no fixed ropes to assist you up those last few feet.
The summit is covered in prayer flags, these are left by climbers and Sherpa's to thank the gods for their safe ascent, you will also find flags from many different countries, banners from sponsors, photographs of loved ones and other small gifts for the gods.
The main item you will see on the summit is 6 foot metal tripod to represent the true summit. The tripod was left there in 1975 by a Chinese expedition, since then everyone acknowledges this as being the high point. Many climbers also use it to tie flags etc to it to stop them being blown away.
