There are several websites dedicated to the sport of mountain climbing. You can also find information at bookstores in the how to section under the heading mountain climbing or sports. There is a chance that you may be able to find a local gym that will offer a class in the basics of mountain climbing and allow you to begin by climbing an indoor rock wall.

Hard working high-altitude climbing Sherpas can earn up to $8,000 (£4,800) in the three-month Everest season, more than 10 times as much as the average wage in Nepal, which remains one of Asia's poorest nations.

The nearest cave to Buckingham is likely the Caves of Cheddar Gorge, located in Somerset, approximately 90 miles away. Cheddar Gorge features a series of limestone caves, known for their stunning formations and rich history. While not immediately adjacent to Buckingham, it is one of the more notable cave systems in the region. For smaller caves, you might also consider the nearby limestone areas around the Chiltern Hills.

The first Indian woman to reach the summit of the highest mountain in the world Mount Everest, was Bachendri Pal on the 22nd May 1984.

Around 5,000 people from all over the world have reached the summit of Mount Everest to date

Climbing a mountain is one of the best exercise. It develops endurance of the muscles, strengthens the heart, enhances one's agility as well as lets you enjoy and benefit from the fresh air of the mountain. In addition, you get to meet different people when you reach the summit, join the fellowship thus developing your social interaction skills. It is also one opportunity to learn what to do in a situation where the only resources you have are the things that you brought and the environment.

Belaying is a very simple task if trained properly but the recommended age to belay is 10. But weight of climber must be considered as well because you dont want the child to be rocketed to the ceiling if a man falls while climbing.

First off, there are static and dynamic ropes.

Static ropes do not stretch and are mostly used for rappelling, hauling, fixed lines, and probably some other stuff I do not know about. This is because none of these activities involve large forces - such as what would be created during a fall.

Dynamic ropes stretch, and are the main type of rope used for rock climbing. This is because they stretch to absorb the shock of the climbing rope. In fact, if I remember correctly, some rock climbing ropes can stretch to as much as 30% more than it's original length.

Dynamic ropes come in a wide range of diameters and can also be divided into three categories - single ropes, half ropes, and twin ropes. One would choose a certain diameter and type of rope based on the activity they plan on doing.

If you mean alpinism (hiking up snowy/rocky peaks) then the challenge is mostly about mental perseverance How much punishment are you willing to take in order to reach the peak?

If you mean rock climbing (scaling vertical faces) then the challenge is partially perseverence, but mostly lies in avoiding the following thought process:

"OhCrapOhCrapOhCrap.I'mGoingToFall.CantHoldOn.DeathIsImmanent."

Which is ridiculous. No on goes out without a rope and a belayer that they trust. But it still pops into your head on occasion.

If you made the tea on top mt Everest the water used would have boiled at a lower temperature! Which would effect the taste of the tea and what molecules are extracted

"The best temperature for brewing tea depends on its type. Teas that have little or no oxidation period, such as a green or white tea, are best brewed at lower temperatures, between 65 and 85 °C (149 and 185 °F), while teas with longer oxidation periods should be brewed at higher temperatures around 100 °C (212 °F).[54] The higher temperatures are required to extract the large, complex, flavorful phenolic molecules found in fermented tea, although boiling the water reduces the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water."

Keeping in mind that oxidation and oxygen play a role in tea, "thinner" air on top mt Everest results in less oxygen present!

The first five Indian women to reach the summit of Mount Everest were: 1: Bachendri Pal on the 23rd May 1984 2: Santosh Yadav on the 12th May 1992 3: Dicky Dolma on the 10th May 1993 4: Santosh Yadav on the 10th May 1993 (her second time) 5: Kunga Bhutia on the 10th May 1993

No, its not safe to mountain climb alone. If something were to happen, you wouldn't be able to get help right away, and it could be fatal, depending on what happened. Its better to be with someone, and I am sure that the company wouldn't hurt either :)
