So why climb Mount Everest?
The most famous answer to this question came
from climber George Mallory - ‘because it is there’.
While more than 2200 people have succeeded in
reaching and returning from the Summit nearly 200
people have lost their life
attempting the climb.
During the 1 924 expedition,
Malory and his climbing partner,
Andrew "Sandy" Irvine,
disappeared on the north-east
ridge of the Everest. The pair were
last seen when they were about 800 vertical ft (245
m) from the summit. Mallory's ultimate fate was
unknown for 75 years, until his body was discovered
on 1 May 1999 by an expedition that had set out to
search for the climbers' remains.
Key words:
Expedition: a journey undertaken by a group of people with a particular purpose.
Summit: t he highest point of a hill or mountain.
