Challenge Objective

For the Maven Everest Challenge, you’ll play the role of a data journalist tasked with telling the story of mankind’s quest to conquer Mount Everest. Using real expedition data, your goal is to craft a compelling visual narrative that highlights things like key milestones, shifting strategies, and the climbers who dared to reach the top of the world.
