New picture mountain climber scaling Mount Everest. What probably comes to mind are teams of climbers with Sherpa guides leading them to the summit, a good with oxygen mask supplies and tents. And in most cases, you'd be right as 97% of climate use oxygen to ascend to every summit at 8850 m above the sea level. The thinner at high altitude makes most people breathless at 3500 m, and the vast majority of climbers use oxygen past 7000 m. A typical climbing group will have 8-15 people in it with an almost equal number of guides, and they'll spend weeks to get to the top after reaching the best camp.
