How long does it take to climb Mount Everest?

It usually takes four days for the North Slope assault to reach the peak from the camp and return to the assault camp. It depends on your physical condition, weather and other comprehensive factors.

In the process of climbing the mountain, you will encounter all kinds of extreme weather. At an altitude of more than 3000 meters, snowstorms are the most common, with strong winds, poor visibility and dim light. In this case, it is easy for a person to have an accident because he can't find a bunker. In addition, there are avalanches, slips and falls, frostbite, lack of oxygen, shortage of materials, inability to reach the top and even life-threatening.

Anyway, I'll give you some price reference: to climb Mount Everest, you need to build 6-7 camps from the base camp, and each camp needs alpine tents, fuel, food and equipment. Each person needs 4 bottles of hyperbaric oxygen, each bottle of oxygen costs 400-500 dollars, and the oxygen regulator costs about 500 dollars per bottle.

Extended data:

Mount Everest is the main peak of the Himalayas and the highest mountain in the world. It is located on the border between China and Nepal. Its northern part is in Dingri County, Tibet, China (the western slope is in Zhaxizong Township, Dingri County, and the eastern slope is in Qudang Township, Dingri County, with Mount Everest base camp), the southern part is in Nepal, and the peak is in China, making it the highest mountain in the world. It is the center of Mount Everest Nature Reserve and Nepalese National Park, spanning four counties in China.

In Tibetan, "Everest" means goddess, and "Langma" means third. Because there are four peaks near Mount Qomolangma, and Mount Qomolangma ranks third, it is called Mount Qomolangma.

Two kinds of heights: the total height climbed by the climber, the snow cover height (total height) of 8848m (29029ft) used by the climber by Nepalese and others, and the rock surface height (exposed height, i.e. geological height) measured by China State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping in 2005 is 8844.43m. The measured data of the two heights since 20 10 have been recognized. Besides being the highest mountain, it is the fifth highest peak from the center of the earth.
