💨 Abstract
Nepal has increased Mount Everest climbing permit fees by 35% for the first time in a decade. The new fee, $15,000, will come into effect from September for the popular climbing season. The government says the royalty was due for a review. Expedition organizers expect the increase to generate funds for environmental protection and safety improvements on Everest. The less popular seasons' fees will also increase.
