Calls for Everest age limit after death of 85-yr-old climber
The Nepal Mountaineering Association is calling for the government to impose an age limit on people who can climb the Everest, after the death of an 85-year-old this weekend. "It's been a decade since we have been advocating for the age limit, 16 years to 76 years," the alpine club said. Nepal had announced it was considering banning novice climbers.
