A peak of the great Himilaya, Mt Everest looms above the frontier between Tibet and Napal. Its elevation as of 1954 was between 29,028 and 29,040 ft. Local name of the peak is "CHOMOLUNGMA" or Goddess Mother of the World. From the summit of Mt Everest, the Northeast Ridge descends to a shoulder, and from there the North Ridge falls to a saddle with the North Col below which the Rongbuk and the East Rongbuk glaciers flow northward into Tibet. The Southeast Ridge drops to the South Col, below which lies a basin called the Western Cwm, feeding the Khumbar glacier. This glacier turns southward in Napal. The Western Ridge runs down to a pass on the frontier. At the mountain's base the altitude is 17,000-18,000 ft. The North Col's altitude is 22,900 ft, the South Col is 25,850 ft. To date the Mountain has been climbed 35 times. Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00789ROO1300070004-7
