Everest is at the highest elevation from sea level but its summit is not far from the earth’s center. There are 17 routes for the Mount Everest Expedition but the climber usually prefers two routes from Nepal and Tibet. Nepal side is the southern ridge and the Tibet side is the northern ridge. The very first line of the Mount Everest Expedition was created by Sir Edmund Hillary from New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa from Nepal in 1953. On the other hand, George Mallory created the line from the Tibetan side but disappeared while climbing Mount Everest in 1924.
