Everest again conquered: the climbers reached the summit for the first time after an avalanche in 2015

• Everest again conquered: the climbers reached the summit for the first time after an avalanche in 2015.

In April 2014 as a result of an avalanche on Everest killed 16 Sherpas-conductors. This tragic event has given rise to a discussion on the feasibility of introducing a ban on the conquest of the highest mountain in the world. A year later, in April 2015, Everest suffered a new disaster: the earthquake in Nepal has given rise to a huge avalanche that claimed the lives of dozens of climbers. Today, for the first time last year, reached the summit of Everest three climbers: British Kenton Cool and Robert Lucas and Mexican David Liano.

The tragedy in April 2014 gave rise to a debate between the Sherpas-conductors that are required to prohibit the ascent of Mount Everest in memory of their colleagues, and the Government of Nepal that refuse to meet their requirements.
