 Even though the highest mountain in the world has
been conquered many times in this forty six year since
the first conquest. Everest is still as mysterious,
beguiling and magnificent as ever. Standing incredibly
tall silhouetted against the shared sky of Nepal and
Tibet, this mountain has many names: Chomolungma,
Sagarmatha, Qomolungma or Mt. Everest. Which ever
name one chooses, its mystery still lives on. It was
first climbed by Sir E. Hillary & Tenzing Norgay
in 1953.
Perhaps the most colorful story about the early attempts
on Everest is the one involving Captain J. Noel and
his native companions. He disguised himself as a Mohammedan
and made a journey from Darjeeling through Northwest
Sikkim and round the north of Kanchanjunga in an attempt
to reach Everest. Unfortunately, not even the disguise
could see him through. His mission was out short just
sixty five kms from Everest when a posse of Tibetan
soldiers forced them to turn back.
Although there are a dozen or so routes on Mt. Everest
we follow the classical route, traditionally the most
reliable way to the summit.
