But only the best climbers reached the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions. First on the mountain, temperatures can force to minus thirty degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high clifts and changeable weather. Before one thousand and sixty, no one was able to reach the top of chalk from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the death road, but a chinese climbing team was determined to make the climb on the twenty fourth of may one thousand nine, sixty climbers, 刘lian，man on屈银华and gambol，arrived at the second step.

On the twenty fourth of may, the chinese national flag flew above the world's highest mountain for the first time in one hundred seventy five. Another chinese team climbed to the top of cha longer to do research. This time, they brought a ladder to the second step until two thousand and seven. Almost all climbers from the northern side use this chinese ladder to reach the top much faster. In twenty twenty, a chinese research team went to joo longer to measure its height, eight thousand eight hundred and forty eight point eight six meters. Climbing turma longer is dangerous. Some climbers reached the top successfully, but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world?

Located in siberia, russia, lake bickle is one of the world's most famous lakes. IT is the deepest freshwater lake in the world. To reach the bottom, you must dive one thousand six hundred twenty meters. IT is also larger than most other lakes. Its surface covers thirty one thousand five hundred square kilometers that is bigger than the country of belgium. A lake bickle is very cold for most of the year, but over one thousand, two hundred different types of animals can still survive in this environment. Today, the lake still attracts many curious travellers. After all, IT is a great natural wonder.

You will feel like you are able to touch the sky, but only the best climbers reach the top, and that is only if they survive the terrible conditions. First, on the mountain, temperatures can fool to negative thirty degrees. Climbers must also deal with air high clifts and changeable weather. Before one thousand and sixty, no one was able to reach the top of kalma from the northern side. Mountain climbers even called that way the death road, but a chinese climbing team was determined to make the climb. On twenty four may nineteen sixty, climbers lj, hua and gabo arrived at the second step. IT was eight thousand, six hundred meters above sea level. People said IT was so high that even birds could not reach IT. Lew allowed his teammates to step on his shoulders bit by bit. The climbers pulled themselves up, and they made IT past the second step. At four twenty AM. On twenty five may, the chinese national flag flew above the world's highest mountain for the first time in one thousand nine seventy five, another chinese team climbed to the top of comalong ma to do research. This time, they brought a letter to the second step until two thousand and seven. Almost all climbers from the northern side use this chinese letter to reach the top much faster. In two thousand twenty, a third team returned to come along a to measure its height, eight thousand eight hundred and forty eight point eight six meters. Climbing comalong ma is dangerous. Some climbers reached the top, but many fail. Why do people still risk their lives to climb the highest mountain in the world? IT is because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or as the english explored, George malloy put IT, IT is simply because it's there. Above the spider at eight thousand meters, there is a realm where nothing can live. Climbers call IT the death soon. The only living things that claim this high are humans, aided by modern technology. Past this point, the oxygen levels drop solo, the body starts to die. Battling relentless less exhaustion. The claim or summon their last piece of courage and get their prize. To stand at eight thousand eight hundred and forty eight meters, the highest point on the planet, but bound by the mountains, extreme conditions, they can only remain here for fifteen minutes. For many, the claiming of everest is their greatest achievement. But for those that live here, there is perhaps and even great achievement to live a mount these mountains and to face their extremes every single day. To do that is to face a world of constant chAllenge, where every day you must find the resolve to start all over again.
