Mount Everest

The British Mount Everest expedition that Edmund Hillary was a member of reached base camp on the 12th April 1953. They would have rested for a few days before starting on there climb of the mountain.

Tourists are not allowed on Mount Everest, only mountaineers/climbers who have paid a fee to try and reach the summit. Most years there are around 200 to 400 climbers at Base Camp ready to climb the mountain.

It was decided that Peak XV should be named as Mount Everest, after George Everest, the Surveyor General of India. In 1865, despite the objections from George Everest the Royal Geographical Society officially adopted Mount Everest as the name for the highest mountain in the world.

Mount Everest is the "highest mountain in the world", the terrestrial location with the highest elevation above sea level : 29,029 feet (8848 m). It is located in the Himalayan mountain range, on the border between Nepal and Tibet in Asia.

It has the native names Sagarmāthā (Nepal), Chomolungma (Tibet) and Zhumulangma (China) and the first recorded ascent to its summit was by Sir Edmund Hillary and his Sherpa guide Tenzing Norgay on May 29, 1953.

That is thought to be the Bar-Headed Goose, although you may want to take that with a pinch of salt.

The Bar-headed Goose is thought to be one of the world's highest flying birds, having been heard flying across Mount Makalu (the fifth highest mountain on earth at 8,481 metres (27,825 ft)) and apparently seen over Mount Everest (8,848 metres (29,029 ft), although this is a second hand report with no verification).

To date, there have been 1,924 ascents of Mount Everest (more than 1,300 different climbers), and 179 people have died. The overall fatality rate is thus about 9% (fatality rate is defined as successful summits compared to fatalities). However, since 1990 there has been an explosion of summiteers and fatality statistics have changed. Up to 1990, the Everest fatality rate is a whopping 37%, with 106 deaths and only 284 summits. Yet from 1990 until today, the rate has dropped to 4.4%; 73 people have died, and 1,640 have summited. Thus, the rate decreased to about eight times less than the pre-1! 990 fatality rate.

Mount Everest is the tallest mountain, but is not one of the "natural wonders" of the world.

Try searching 'Mount Everest model' on Google pictures. I am sure you will find some there.

Mt. Everest is too steep for the wild yak to navigate on its hills and the rocks doesnt have grass for them to feed up on.
