The season's first wave of climbers reached the summit this weekend as Sherpa guides fixed ropes and made paths for the hundreds of climbers who will attempt to scale the peak over the next few weeks. Experienced mountain guide Kami Rita earlier held the record outright for the most climbs of Mount Everest after his. Rita is expected to attempt to climb the peak again later this month as he guides foreign climbers to the top of the world.
With the opening of the route to the summit, a rush to make their attempts is expected in the next couple of weeks as the Nepalese authorities have issued nearly 470 permits for Everest during the popular spring climbing season.
