About 65 million years ago, the Indian subcontinent rushed toward Eurasia and eventually crashed into the Eurasian continent, forming the rolling Himalayas. Due to the collision and squeezing of the edge of the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate, the Himalayas region has been violently lifted, and it is estimated that the average increase is about 20-30 meters per 10,000 years, and until now, the Himalayan mountains are still rising, rising by 7 centimeters every 100 years.

Mount Everest is located in the middle of the Himalayas, the mountain is a giant pyramid-shaped mountain, the terrain is extremely steep, the height of the snow line is 5800-6200 meters on the north slope, and the south slope is 5500-6100 meters. Sandwiched between the northeast, southeast and west ridges are three major steep walls (north, east and southwest), between which are 548 continental glaciers with a total area of 1457.07 square kilometers and an average thickness of 7260 meters. The north and south slopes of Mount Everest are more snowy and snowy below 7500 meters, while the north and southwest slopes are more gravel above 7500 meters. At an altitude of 7500 meters above sea level, the coldest month is February, with an average temperature of -27.1 °C, and the hottest month is August, with an average temperature of -10.4 °C and an average annual temperature of -19.6 °C.
