  1. Climbers can fall in a crevice or slip and die from their injuries.
    The weather can change suddenly.
    Oxygen systems can fail causing death as the air up the mountain lacks the oxygen climbers need to breathe.
    Avalanches.
    many climbers are too slow going to the summit and get caught in a bad storm.
