    The Nepalese government charges expeditions a $4000 deposit that is returned in full after the journey to Everest when what is successfully removed by the climbers?

    		The deposit is returned if the team removes all gear and rubbish (e.g., empty oxygen canisters) brought to Everest by the team.

    "Everest has been nicknamed the world's highest rubbish dump. Some say there are 50 tonnes of refuse on the Nepalese slopes. Recently the government tightened laws, and climbers are required to carry out all gear and rubbish or forfeit a $4,000 (£3,320) deposit."
