Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world.
Its elevation of 29,030 feet (8,848 meters) was determined using GPS satellite
equipment on May 5, 1999. The new elevation has been confirmed by the National
Geographic Society. (Chomolungma, Goddess
Mother of the World) |

The North Side
of Everest is drained by the Rongbuk Glacier
system which flows north around Changtse,
the "North Peak" of Everest. Changtse is
linked to Everest by a saddle, the North
Col, which is about 7000 meters (around
23,000'). |
