Image
  An Everest Expedition is the ultimate mountaineering goal for many climbers, offering the chance to stand at the summit of the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, which stands at 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) above sea level. Here's a brief overview of what such an expedition entails: Preparation and Training: Successful Everest climbers usually have extensive high-altitude mountaineering experience. They undergo rigorous physical training, technical climbing preparation, and familiarization with extreme weather conditions. Route and Timing: Most expeditions occur in April-May, during a narrow weather window. The two primary routes are the Southeast Ridge from Nepal and the North Col from Tibet. The Southeast Ridge is more frequently used and is considered slightly less technically challenging. Base Camp to Summit: Base Camp: Expeditions start at Base Camp (South Side: 5,364 meters, North Side: about 5,150 meters), where climbers acclimatize and prepare for higher camps. Khumbu
