Nepal is proposing a new law requiring Mount Everest climbers to have prior Himalayan mountain experience to improve safety and reduce overcrowding on the world's highest peak.
Nepal has drafted a law that would require climbers to have prior experience with hiking one of the Himalayan mountains, Reuters reported. Over 330 climbers have died while hiking Mount Everest since modern records began in 1921.
The proposed law aims at improving safety while also reducing overcrowding on the summit.
