A Saudi Arabian woman is among a group of 64 climbers who have reportedy scaled Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, according to reports from the AP this morning. Nepal's mountaineering officials say that the 35 foreigners and 29 Sherba guides safely summitted at 29,035 feet on Saturday morning, after an all-night trek from the nearest camp. The Saudi, Raha Moharrak, is the first woman from her country to reach the top of Everest. The mountain—first summited by Sir Edmund Hillary and sherpa Tenzing Norgay—is considered a highly dangerous climb; already, six deaths have been recorded this year.
