Experienced climbers can ascend the summit on two marked routes.
Nowadays, climbers will ascend this step using fixed ropes previously set up by Sherpas.
The person on the ground, called the belayer, takes up slack in the rope as the climber ascends.
A climbing wall 115 feet high attached to one face of the 13-story Cliff Lodge is the course the climbers will ascend.
Two more climbers ascended the mountain and kept them warm before they were airlifted to a hospital in Anchorage, Alaska.
Essentially ratcheting himself upward, a climber thereby ascends the rope.
The Discovery Climb allows climbers to ascend the lower chord of the bridge and view its internal structure.
From the apex of the lower chord, climbers ascend a staircase to a platform at the summit.
The climber will ascend into the tree until he reaches the highest safe climbing point.
A variety of techniques allow climbers to ascend what appear to be blank faces and challenging cracks.
