Good Luck.
Tempers can get hot even the freezing conditions Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain. So hot, fact, that fights break among climbers. One brawl erupted last April climbers from Europe and local Sherpas. The free--all happened 7,470m, 1,400m the summit. It started an argument about how to fix mountaineering ropes on the slopes. The dispute was resolved anyone suffering serious injuries. With Everest becoming more and more crowded, Nepalese officials are attempting to nip any more trouble the bud by deploying a team of security guards. The nine-person team will be ready to deal any alpine altercations before the climbing season begins in April.

An official Nepal's tourism ministry told the Himalayan Times website that last year's skirmish raised concerns the safety and security climbers the mountain, especially given that law enforcement officers were days away. He said: "We will open office the base camp a team of government officials, including the army and police personnel. This will make it easy to resolve any conflict." He added: "The presence security officials the base camp will give a psychological feeling climbers that they are safe." He said the security officers could also assist "medical help, rescues or anything else", adding: "We want to make things easier climbers."
