[ Everest is the highest peak in the world. It has an elevation of 8,848 meters (29,028 feet) above sea level. Everest falls in the Khumbu Pasanglamu municipality of Solukhumbu district in Nepal. In the Tibetan language, its name is Chomolung. Especially Thulung Rai locals call Mt. Everest Chomolung. Everest was named Mount Everest in 1865 after the British surveyor Colonel Sir George Everest. Later, in 1956 (2012 BS), Shiromani Baburam Acharya named it Mount Everest and also wrote the Nepali name of Mount Everest, Xyamolongmo. It is also called Devdhunga in some places. Everest was first climbed on May 29, 1953 at 11:15 a.m. by Tenzing Norgay Sherpa of Nepal and Sir Edmund Hillary of New Zealand. ]

Weather Information

Seasons of Everest
Mount Everest lies 28° north of the equator and is subject to a typical northern hemisphere seasonal pattern. It lies at the edge of the influence of the Indian Monsoon which brings moisture and clouds from June to September. The cold months are December/January and the best trekking is between these two seasons .during March to May and October to November, when the climate is moderate.

1. Winter Weather at Everest:  Winter weather (Nov to Feb) is dominated by the southward migration of the northern hemisphere jet stream which brings high winds, cold temperatures and on occasion heavy snow falls. Winter can be a great time for trekking as the crowds trying to avoid the cold clear out. Day temperatures are comfortable and sunny skies generally prevail although it can get well below freezing at night.

2. Spring (preMonsoon)Weather at Everest:  March until the unset of the Monsoon is one of the ideal times to trek. Rain is infrequent and day temperatures are warm. Lots of trekkers and climbers are out in t-shirts.

3. Monsoon Season Everest:  The summer weather (June to Sept) is influenced by the Indian Monsoon which brings frequent rainfall and cloudy days. You might find solitude during this time but clouds and rain generally obscure the peaks and it’s not a good time to visit.

4. Fall Weather (postMonsoon) at Everest:  The Fall season from the end of the Monsoon until temperatures get cold in December is a great time for trekking with generally clear days and comfortable temperatures.

We don’t recommend travel to the region between June and September once the monsoon sets in as generally cloudy weather and rain obscure the peaks and you might be lucky to even see Everest.

Everest Precipitation Patterns
The Everest Base Camp Region is fairly dry with an average of 18 inches of precipitation received at base camp. Most of the precipitation that does fall (80%+) occurs during the monsoon se
