The information of Mount Everest is simple.

Mount Qomolangma, also translated as Mount Qomolangma, is called Sagamata Peak in Nepal, and it is also called "Mount Qomolangma". It is located in the Himalayas on the border between the people of China and Nepal, and it is covered with snow all year round. At an altitude of 8844.43 meters, it is the highest mountain in the world and one of the ten most beautiful and shocking famous mountains in China.

The National Geographic Society of the United States conducted a latest survey of Mount Everest in 1999 by using the Global Positioning System (GPS).

People think that the altitude of Mount Everest should be 8850 meters. The altitude of Mount Qomolangma was once recognized by all countries in the world. It was 8848.438+03m as measured by China People's Mountaineering Team in 1975. However, the outside world also has a variety of sayings such as 8848 meters, 8840 meters, 8850 meters and 8882 meters. Recently, on May 22nd, 2005, the people of China and China successfully boarded the satellite map of Mount Everest.

Top, accurately measure the height of Mount Everest again. The new height of Mount Everest is 8844.43 meters (as can be seen from the left picture, the peak is located in China). At the same time, stop the data of 1975 8848. 13m. With the passage of time, the height of Mount Everest will change constantly because of the movement of geographical plates. Interestingly, although Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world, its summit is not the farthest point from the center of the earth. This special point belongs to Chimborazo Mountain in South America. It is known that the highest peak of the solar system is Mount Olympus at an altitude of 27,000 meters on Mars. The majestic image of Mount Everest has always had a great influence in the local area and even in the world. Latitude and longitude: 27 59 ′17 ″ north latitude; 86 55' 31÷ e First summit time:1953 On May 29th, Mount Qomolangma in Edmund Hillary and Tenzin Norguet was in the shape of a giant pyramid, majestic and towering, with extremely steep terrain and complicated environment. Snow line height: 5800-6200m on the north slope and 5500-6 100m on the south slope. There are three steep walls (north wall, east wall and southwest wall) between the northeast ridge, southeast ridge and Xishan ridge, and 548 continental glaciers are distributed between these ridges and cliffs, with a total area of 1 457.07 square kilometers and an average thickness of 7260 meters. The replenishment of glaciers is mainly formed by the snow metamorphism in the two major precipitation zones of the Indian Ocean monsoon belt. There are various, magnificent and rare ice towers on the glacier, ice cliffs as high as tens of meters, light and dark ice cracks with traps step by step, and dangerous ice collapse areas. Mount Everest is not only magnificent, but also magnificent. There are many peaks and mountains within 20 kilometers around it. There are more than 40 peaks above 7000 meters above sea level. The famous ones are Luozi Peak (8463 meters above sea level, the fourth highest peak in the world) and Zhuoqiong Peak (7589 meters above sea level), Makaru Peak in the southeast (8463 meters above sea level, the fifth highest peak in the world), Zhang Zifeng in the north (7543 meters above sea level) and Nuzi Peak in the west (7855 meters above sea level). On the periphery of these giant peaks, there are some world-class peaks far away: in the southeast, there is Zhangjiafeng, the third highest dry city in the world (8585 meters above sea level, which is the boundary peak between Nepal and Sikkim, India); In the west, there are Feng Kang at an altitude of 7998m, Zhuooyou Peak at an altitude of 820 1 m and Xixiabangma Peak at an altitude of 8012m. It has formed a magnificent scene of peaks reaching the DPRK and peaks surging. Topographic map near the summit of Mount Everest

The National Geographic Society of the United States conducted a latest survey of Mount Everest in 1999 by using the Global Positioning System (GPS). They think that the elevation of Mount Everest should be 8850 meters. The altitude of Mount Everest, once recognized by all countries in the world, was determined by the China People's Mountaineering Team in 1975, with an altitude of 8848.438+03 meters. However, the outside world also has a variety of sayings such as 8848 meters, 8840 meters, 8850 meters and 8882 meters. On May 22nd, 2005, the people of China and the National Everest Height Measuring Team successfully climbed Mount Everest, and the height of Mount Everest was accurately measured again. The new height of Mount Everest is 8844.43 meters, and the peak is located in China. At the same time, stop the data of 1975 8848. 13m. The Himalayan region where Mount Everest is located used to be an ocean. In the long geological age, a large number of gravels and sediments washed down from the land accumulated in the Himalayan region, forming a marine sedimentary rock layer with a thickness of more than 30 thousand meters. Later, due to the strong orogeny, the Himalayan region was squeezed and lifted violently. According to estimates, the average increase is about 20-30 meters every 1 10,000 years. Up to now, the Himalayan region is still rising, rising by 7 cm every 100 years. With the passage of time, the height of Mount Everest will change constantly because of the movement of geographical plates. Interestingly, although Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world, its summit is not the farthest point from the center of the earth. This special point belongs to Chimborazo Mountain in South America. It is known that the highest peak of the solar system is Mount Olympus at an altitude of 27,000 meters on Mars. The majestic image of Mount Everest has always had a great influence in the local area and even in the world. In, the first British mountaineering team led by Lieutenant Colonel Charles Howard Burleigh began to climb Mount Everest, reaching an altitude of 7000 meters. 1922, the second British mountaineering team reached an altitude of 8320 meters with oxygen supply devices.

1924, when the third British mountaineering team climbed Mount Everest, George Mallory and Andrew Irvine disappeared while using the oxygen supply device to reach the summit. Mallory's body was found at an altitude of 8150m on 1999, and the camera he was carrying with him was missing, so it is impossible to determine whether he and Owen were the first people to successfully climb the summit in the world. 1On May 29th, 953, Edmund Hillary, a 34-year-old mountaineer from New Zealand, as a member of the British mountaineering team, climbed Mount Qomolangma along the southeast ridge route together with tenzing norgay nor Gayen: tenzing norgay, a 39-year-old Nepalese guide, which was the first mountaineering team to successfully climb to the top on record. Tenzin Nogai, who climbed Mount Everest.

From 65438 to 0956, the Swiss mountaineering team headed by Albert Eigler climbed Mount Everest for the second time in human history. 1960 On May 25th, the people of China climbed Mount Everest for the first time. They are Wang Fuzhou, Kampot (Tibetan) and Qu. This climb is also the first successful climb from the north slope. 1963, the American expedition headed by Norman Dillenforth successfully climbed to the top from the west slope for the first time. 1975, Japanese Junko Tanabe became the first woman in the world to climb Mount Everest from the south slope. The following year, China people climbed Mount Everest for the second time, and nine members reached the summit. Among them, Tibetan player Panduo became the first woman in the world to successfully climb the summit from the North Slope. 1978, Austrian Peter Haber and Italian reinhold Mesner successfully climbed the summit for the first time without oxygen tanks. 1980, Polish mountaineer Krzysztof Vereker successfully climbed Mount Everest for the first time in winter. 1988, the joint mountaineering team of China people, China, Japan and Nepal successfully climbed Mount Everest from the north and south sides for the first time. 1996 15 climbers, including the famous mountaineer rob hall, were killed in the process of climbing the summit, which was the year with the largest number of deaths in the history of climbing Mount Everest. From 65438 to 0998, American Tom Whitaker became the first disabled person in the world to successfully climb Mount Everest. In 2000, the famous Nepalese mountaineer Babu Chiri set out from the base camp and climbed from the north slope. The successful summit took 16 hours and 56 minutes, setting a record for the fastest summit. In 200 1 year, American Vihengmel became the first blind man to climb Mount Everest. In 2005, the people of China successfully climbed Mount Everest, and the height data of Mount Everest was measured for the fourth time in China.

On May 8, 2008, at 9: 0017, Beijing time, the China mountaineering team successfully climbed Mount Everest with the help of the Beijing Olympic torch relay. Tsering Wangmo, a Tibetan female athlete, held high the flaming Olympic torch at the summit, and the "Xiangyun" torch was blazing at the highest peak in the world. This is the first time that the Olympic flame has reached the summit of Mount Everest. The eternal flame of the Olympic Games has reached an unprecedented height, which is undoubtedly one of the greatest feats in Olympic history. The Beijing Olympic torch relay to Mount Everest was a complete success. List of torchbearers, commandos and support groups for the Everest Torch Summit: torchbearers: Gigi (first stick), Wang Yongfeng (second stick), Nima Tsering (third stick), Huang Chungui (fourth stick) and Tsering Wangmo (fifth stick) 12, with leader: Nima Tsering and deputy leader: Luo Shen, member. The support group consists of seven people. The team leader is Wang Yongfeng, Jiu Mei, Bian Barton Zhu, Yan Dongdong and Deqing Ouzhu. Olympic torch summit

Edit the climate of this paragraph.

The climate of Mount Qomolangma and its nearby peaks is complex and changeable, even in one day, it is often unpredictable, not to mention having sex all year round. Generally speaking, the rainy season is from early June to mid-September every year, and the strong southeast monsoon leads to frequent rainstorms, fog and snow. 165438+1From mid-October to mid-February of the following year, the lowest temperature can reach -60℃ and the average temperature is between -40℃ and -50℃. The maximum wind speed can reach 90m/ s, with the spring from windy season to rainy season from the beginning of March to the end of May, and the autumn from rainy season to windy season from the beginning of September to the end of 10. There may be better weather during this period, which is the best season for mountaineering. Because of the extremely cold climate, it is also called the roof of the world. According to the radiosonde data of heliostat weather station at the foot of Mount Everest, it is the coldest in February with an average temperature of -27. 1℃, and the hottest in August with an average temperature of-10.4℃ and an annual average temperature of-19.6℃. At an altitude of 9400 meters, the coldest is in February (-40.5℃), the hottest is in August (-23.7℃), and the annual average temperature is -33.0℃, so the annual average temperature at the height of Mount Everest is about -29.0℃, 1 month is -37℃, and the average temperature in July is -20℃.

As early as the beginning of19th century, Mount Qomolangma has become a place that mountaineers and scientists all over the world yearn for. However, it was not until 1953 that Edmund Hillary and Tenzin in Britain set the first successful record. By the end of 1998, there were 1054 people in the world who enjoyed the unique reputation of being on the top of the world. Through their own efforts, they discovered and created the 1 1 mountaineering route. These routes are: southeast ridge route: 1952, which was discovered by the Swiss mountaineering team, but unfortunately fell short. It was not until the following year that the British team successfully reached the top along this route. Northeast Ridge Route: 1960 was initiated by the people and the national team of China and successfully reached the summit. Route from Northwest Ridge to North Wall: 1963 was initiated by the US team and was a success. Southwest Wall Route: 1960, the first Three Heroes on the Top of the Earth in China.

1975 was initiated by the British Bonin team and reached its peak. Northwest ridge route: 1979 was discovered by the former Yugoslav team and reached the summit. Straight to the north wall route: 1980 was initiated by the Japanese team and reached its peak. Nanzhuling route: 1980 Poland team opened up and reached its peak. Route from northeast ridge to north wall: 1980 Mesner was the first successful. Route from southwest wall to northwest ridge: 1982 was initiated by the former Soviet team, and reached the peak along this route. Route from East Wall to Southeast Ridge: 1983 was initiated and succeeded by the San Francisco Bay Area team. East wall route: 1988 was initiated by the US-New Zealand international expedition and reached its peak. In the same year, the joint mountaineering team of China, Japan and Nepal also achieved a feat of crossing the north-south slope and reaching the summit. The heroic miracle of human climbing Mount Everest is constantly emerging.

Edit this climbing history.

The climbing activity of Mount Qomolangma began at the beginning of last century. The first official climb to Mount Everest was the British team in 192 1 year. However, until 1938, the British mountaineering team tried to climb from the northern slope of Mount Qomolangma in Tibet, China, and all failed. During the period of 1939- 1946, the whole Himalayan mountaineering activity was at a standstill due to World War II. After 1947, mountaineering activities in Asian alpine areas resumed. During the twenty-eight years from 1947 to 1975, athletes from all over the world have successively 1 1 climbed Mount Everest successfully. At the top of Mount Everest, the general manager left the footprints of 51 male and female athletes from eight countries. Among them, China accounts for 12, including a female athlete, which is the country with the largest number of people climbing Mount Everest so far. Now, the situation of countries climbing Mount Everest in the past half century is briefly described as follows: 1, 192 1, and the British mountaineering team (captain Ke Hawad Barry) climbed Mount Everest for the first time from Tibet, China. They didn't cross the top of the northern depression and claimed that the height they reached was 6985 meters. Because of failure, they announced that this was a reconnaissance mountaineering activity. 2. 1922, the second British Everest climbing team (captain Ji Bruce) still took the route of the northern slope of China and Tibet. They crossed the northern depression, but when they reached the height of 8225 meters, they failed because seven people died. Mount Qomolangma

3. 1924, the third British Everest climbing team (Captain F. Norton) was still climbing from the north slope of Mount Everest in China. Norton and others were forced to go down the mountain because of lack of oxygen when they reached 8572 meters below the "second step" on the north slope. Team members Mallory and Abin kept going and never came back. 4. 1933, the British mountaineering team (Captain Herr Lutoleggi) composed of 16 people still used the route on the northern slope of Tibet in China, but it also failed. When team members Wen Harris and Wiggle reached an altitude of 8570 meters, the ice cone of Mallory, a member of the British Everest mountaineering team, was found at 1924, which was confirmed. 5. 1934, an Englishman, Mi Wilson, climbed the mountain alone with a light plane. Therefore,

The plane was damaged near Camp Glacier, and he was slightly injured. Later, he hired some local Sherpas to help climb the mountain, but after a storm, he froze to death on the East Aobao Glacier. 6. 1935, the British Everest expedition consisting of seven people (captain Shipton) only detected the elevation of 7000m on the northern slope of Mount Everest in Tibet, China, that is, near the northern depression, and returned. 7. 1936, the British Everest mountaineering team consisting of ten people (captain H. Lutoleggi) reached the top of the northern depression at an altitude of 7007 meters and returned [Note: the top of the northern depression used to be 7007 meters, 1975, the China mountaineering team calculated the accurate height of 7050 meters through field measurement. 8. 1938, the British Everest team composed of seven people (captain Ge Dielmann) still climbed from the northern slope of China, but failed after reaching an altitude of 8,290 meters. 9. 1947, climbing Mount Everest for the first time after World War II, Canadian Le Dian Man hired some local mountain residents as porters, and still walked on the northern slope of China, not exceeding 6,400 meters above sea level, and finally failed to return. The above-mentioned nine activities to climb Mount Everest all started from Tibet, China, and were unsuccessful. After 1950, Tibet is liberated, and Tibet, located in the southwest frontier, will no longer allow foreign mountaineering teams to carry out mountaineering activities at will. Since then, foreign mountaineering teams have changed to climb Mount Everest from the southern slope of Nepal. 10, 1950, the mountaineering team composed of American Dick Houston and others tried to climb Mount Everest from the southern slope of Nepal for the first time, and only reached the vicinity of the ice explosion area on the Kampot Glacier at an altitude of 6 100 meters, and then returned. 1 1, 1950, a five-member British mountaineering team (captain Ge Dielmann) claimed in advance that it was a reconnaissance team that climbed Mount Qomolangma from the south slope and returned after reaching the vicinity of Kumbu Glacier at an altitude of 5,480 meters. At 12, 195 1, the British mountaineering team headed by Shipton consisted of seven people. They only climbed a section of Kambu Glacier and returned at an altitude of 6450 meters. 13 years, 195 1 year, a Dane named Kebeka Larsen illegally and secretly crossed the border into Tibet. He planned to climb Mount Qomolangma from the north slope, but he failed without crossing 6500 meters above sea level. 14, 1952 In May, a ten-member Swiss mountaineering team led by captain Le dietmar climbed Mount Everest from the southern slope of Nepal. After reaching an altitude of 8540 meters above sea level, team member Le ranbir and their hired porter Tengxin from Nepal failed due to bad weather, but they created a route from the south slope of Mount Everest to the summit. 15, 1952, 10 In June, the Swiss mountaineering team, led by Ge Chevalier, climbed Mount Everest from the south slope for the first time in autumn, that is, after the rainy season in the Himalayas.

On Mount Everest, the player Le ranbir was a participant in the Swiss team that spring. Team members En Gyllenfort and Nepalese teng letter, who were employed in the spring, reached an altitude of 8 100 meters, and failed again due to bad weather. 16 and 1953, two members of the British mountaineering team (composed of ten people) climbed to the top of Mount Everest. The summit members are Yi Hilary (New Zealander) and Fujishin Norguet (namely 1952 Nepalese who climbed 8000m with Swiss mountaineering team twice in spring and autumn). Team members Evans and Bulguelang reached an altitude of 8720 meters. The height of Mount Everest used by the British this time is 8840 meters. At 17 and 1956, the Swiss mountaineering team (captain Arbel eger) consisted of five members, including E Schmidt, You Malmet, A Leis and g E Qin Gong. With the support of a large number of Nepalese porters and guides, they climbed Mount Everest in two groups on May 23rd. The route they used was pioneered by Swiss athletes at 1952, which was first adopted and succeeded by the British team. That is, starting from the empty glacier on the south slope of Mount Everest, it reaches the mountain depression (commonly known as the south depression) between Mount Everest and its sister peak Luoze (850 1 m above sea level), and then climbs to the top along the southeast ridge. The elevation of Mount Everest used is 8848 meters. 18,1in the early morning of may 25th, 960, the China Everest expedition team (commander-in-chief Han Fudong, captain Shi Zhanchun) climbed the highest mountain in the world for the first time from the north slope of China, and the three members who climbed to the top were Wang Fuzhou, Kampot and Qu. Mount Qomolangma

In this mountaineering, * * * 29 members of the China mountaineering team climbed to the top of Mount Everest at a height of more than 8 100 meters, and 13 members climbed to the top of Mount Everest at a height of 8500 meters. Among them, Comrade Liu Lianman failed to climb to the top due to illness, leaving oxygen tanks for three summit heroes at the camp. This is also the first time in the history of world mountaineering. 19, 1960 In May, while the China mountaineering team launched an attack from the northern slope to Mount Everest, an Indian mountaineering team led by Indian major Ji Singh was also climbing from the southern slope of Nepal to Mount Everest. When they reached the height of 8625 meters on the south slope, they announced that they would give up the summit because of the strong wind. 20. 1962, India's second Everest mountaineering team, led by its captain, Lieutenant Colonel Jedias of the Indian Army, climbed Mount Everest from the southern slope of Nepal again, but failed again for fear of strong winds. Two of its members climbed to an altitude of 87 17 meters. 2 1, 1963, the American Everest team (Captain En Dilinfes) succeeded in climbing from the south slope of Mount Everest in Nepal along the southwest ridge. The American team made two raids every 2 1 day. On may 1 day, two people reached the summit for the first time, and on may 22nd, four people reached the summit for the second time, and six people reached the summit twice. This is the fourth mountaineering team to climb Mount Everest. 22. 1965. On May 20th, 22nd, 24th and 29th, the Indian mountaineering team (led by Indian Navy Major Lee) successively climbed Mount Everest from the southern slope of Nepal with four ladders, with nine people reaching the summit four times. The team members and vice captains are all selected from Indian active servicemen. 23. 1969 In the spring, the Japanese mountaineering team made the first exploratory mountaineering from the south slope of Mount Everest. After reaching the Kampot Glacier area at an altitude of 6,450 meters, they left behind some glaciers and meteorological observers. They stayed on Mount Everest for a whole year and observed the meteorology and glaciers for a long time, which laid the necessary foundation for the Japanese team to officially climb Mount Everest on 1970. 24.1in the autumn of 969, the Japanese Everest mountaineering team (captain Hiroshi Fujita) tried to capture Mount Everest from the south slope on the basis of mountaineering reconnaissance that spring, but after reaching an altitude of 8,000 meters, it announced that it had "completed the autumn mountaineering reconnaissance mission" and returned. 25. 1970 In the spring, the Japanese Everest climbing team was led by Saburo Matsumoto, a 70-year-old captain (who is an old Japanese climber). Although he participated in this mountaineering, he spent all his time in the base camp, neither taking part in the adaptive March nor taking part in the summit activities. His participation shows that the Japanese mountaineering community attaches great importance to this activity), and he launched an attack on Mount Everest in two groups: one group went straight to the summit of Mount Everest from the south of Mount Everest along a steep rock wall (also known as rock wall) 800 meters long. This is a relatively difficult route chosen by the Japanese themselves, because they dare to "technically climb" above 8000 meters above sea level, that is, climb steep rock walls, which other mountaineering teams have not done in the past. The other group is still the traditional old route, that is, the route from the south slope along the southeast ridge through the south depression to the top of the mountain. The reason why the Japanese team split up and dared to challenge the front rock wall of the south slope of Mount Everest was inseparable from the world mountaineering trend at that time. Because climbing along the traditional route from the south slope and taking the road that others have taken is of little significance to the rapidly developing alpine mountaineering. The Japanese team's frontal summit route on the south hillside really rose by about150m (calculated by the vertical height of the slope) and failed. Finally, they had to rely on the traditional route of the second group. On May 1970, 1 1, 12, the team was divided into two echelons, and four people successfully climbed from the traditional route. These climbers are Takeo Matsuura, Naoko Uemura, Ping Linming and Nepali porter Chatali. 26. 197 1 In the spring of, the "International Everest Mountaineering Team" composed of climbers from eleven European countries, such as Britain, France, Italy, Austria, Switzerland and India, led by the team leader and Swiss mountaineer En Keelunfoot, reached the summit along the southwest ridge route of the south slope of Mount Everest (basically 65,438+).
