Well, ice-axe and crampon competency is the bare minimum necessary to even step on a snow mountain. Granted that Denali is a hard climb, but still, if that has been your only climbing experience you are woefully unprepared to attempt Everest.
- pavelrub 13y agoThanks for your input on what's required to climb Everest.
