Mount Everest in 2018

A total of 807 climbers summited Mount Everest in 2018. The year saw an unusually long weather window of 11 days straight of calm, which reduced crowding at the high base camps. The number of people reaching the summit was the highest in recorded history, beating the previous year's total by over 150.
