History of exploration Mountaineering on Everest
Mount Everest is difficult to get to and more difficult to climb, even with the great advances made in equipment, transportation, communications, and weather forecasting since the first major expeditions in the 1920s.

In Tibet there is now a road to the north-side Base Camp.
