Most expeditions to Everest take around two months. Climbers start arriving at the mountain’s base camps in late March. On the more popular south side, base camp is at around 5,300 metres and sits at the foot of the icefall, the first major obstacle. Most clients will only go through this shifting maze of ice two or three times, whereas Sherpas can do it up to 30 times in the course of a season. Clients now acclimatise on other peaks.

Almost all of those who now climb Everest use the services of commercial expedition operators. These vary quite widely in price. A western company, which still relies on local high-altitude workers, will charge around $60,000 to $65,000.

Q: How many miles do you walk each day? A: It is about 38 miles from Lukla to EBC and it should take a minimum of nine days. You generally walk about 4 to 6 hours each day starting about 8:00AM.

There are three options for a trek: 1) organize your own 2) a Nepalese company or 3) a western guided commercial trek. The one on your on is obvious: you do everything; all you need is to get to Lukla and spend money on the park permit ($13.84 or 1000 rupees) and food.

1 1921: The first expedition to Everest was a reconnaissance to locate the best route up the mountain. 2  1922: George Mallory, Edward Norton and Howard Somervell became the first climbers to reach more than 8,000m.

This is a very common question and the answer depends on where you consider the climb to start from. From when we arrive in Kathmandu, we will take 2 days to get organised and then we will fly into the mountains (to Lukla). However this depends on whether the flights are going as they are often delayed due to weather. From here it will take us around 10 days to trek into base camp (including rest days for acclimatisation). Once at base camp, we'll need to rest further, and then we'll begin our acclimatisation rounds.

A: If you can walk 5 miles a day and are in good aerobic shape (with a doctor's approval) you should do fine. The actually trekking is on mostly level ground with a few sections of steep hillsides-up and down. You should not be carrying more than a light day pack with a jacket, water and snacks.

Roughly 150 people made it to the summit in each of the 2004 and 2005 seasons-however, many of these were guides and Sherpas who had summitted previously. It's estimated that around 70 of these would be first-time Everest climbers. (This is thought to be from around 200 climbers that attempt the mountain each year.).

I have trekked in the Khumbu many times. Once as a trekker and the rest for climbs of Everest or other mountains. I am often asked questions about trekking to Everest Base Camp (EBC) so here are the most frequent questions with my answers.
http://www.alanarnette.com/everest/ebcfaq.php
A: It depends on your route but most EBC treks take about 20 days. You do not want to go on a rush trek primarily due to the altitude. You land in Lukla at 9250' and go to EBC at 17,500. If you go too fast you will get altitude sickness which can be deadly.
