The Everest Experience: A Journey Unlike Any Other

What Gave Everest Its Name?

Did you know Mount Everest wasn’t always called “Everest”? To the Tibetans, it is “Chomolungma,” meaning “Goddess Mother of the World.” The Nepali people call it “Sagarmatha,” or “Goddess of the Sky.”

In the 19th century, land surveyors referred to it as “Peak XV.” But in 1865, the mountain was named after Sir George Everest, a Welsh surveyor who led the Great Trigonometric Survey of the Sub-Continent. Interestingly, Sir George Everest himself never saw the mountain that now bears his name!
