Why does it cost 50k to climb Mount Everest?
Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice the mention of the cost of climbing Mount Everest being 50,000. Could you please elaborate on what factors contribute to such a high expense? Is it the equipment needed, the cost of hiring guides, or are there other significant expenses that I might not be aware of? I'm genuinely curious about how this cost breaks down and what exactly goes into making the summit of Mount Everest such an expensive endeavor.
