The veiw is amaizing here on Mount Everest you almost forget that it is about -20degrees where i am. almost....
Usually it would take a long time to learn how to climb up the mountain but we had a very good guide (in picture) and he showed us everything in a few weeks. He has been up the mountain a few times before so he knew the way to the top. It was very hard to climb and even though we went in the warm season because there were freezing snowstorms and huge icy cliffs. It took four days to climb Mount everest and it was very hard, climbing all day. We had about an hour at the top before coming back down.
Mount everest is 8 848m high, and is rising a few milimeteres every year. Approximately 4000 people have climbed mount everest, and 142 people have died on mount everest. The first 2 people who climbed Mount Everest were Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay on may 29, 1953.
