            Mt.Everest is the highest mountain in the world.It is 8848m from see level.In 1856, Andrew Waugh announced Everest (then known as Peak XV) as 29,002 ft (8,840 m) high, after several years of calculations based on observations made by the 'Great Trigonometry Survey' .It is located in sagarmatha zone solukhumbu district.And also its near to china.Everest is the mountain that famous the small county Nepal.It is the crown of Nepal. 
             The name Everest is not named easily.Many local names existed, including "Deodungha" ("Holy Mountain") . In the late 19th century, many European cartographers further believed (incorrectly) that a native name for the mountain was "Gaurisankar",although this was a result of confusion of Mount Everest with Gauri Sankar, which, when viewed from Kathmandu, stands almost directly in front of Everest.
      Many people come to Nepal for just climbing the world highest peak Mt.Everest.Many are succeeds and many are not,even few are dead there and their death body also not found.There are two ridge to Everest  one is southeast ridge and another is northeast ridge.
Southeast ridge: It is beings with a trek to base camp south of Everest in Nepal.To get there we fly into lukla from kathmandu and pass through Namche Bazar.


Northeast ridge is beings from north side of Everest in Tibet.Which is also the one of the trek way. From there also many people trek.

    It’s a great blog having enough information about Mt.Everest. We did the Mount Everest Base Camp Trek in April 2014 before american east coast tours and had an amazing time. Our trek was arranged by Yeti Mountain Homes and for the majority of the time we stayed in luxury lodges. We also had an amazing guide Jenzing Sherpa.
    The trek itself was hard, really hard but we went up quite slowly and in the end made it without any issues to Base Camp and climbed Kala Pattar the next day. The views are breathtaking, the experience amazing and I will never forget this incredible feeling of achievement I got once I made it to Base Camp.
