KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Nepal's tourism department wants to make sure there's no cheating when trying to climb Mount Everest. It'll be strapping GPS devices on some climbers to track their movement during the spring season. Hundreds of people are expected to attempt to climb the world's highest peak in April and May, but only a few will be fitted with the GPS devices as an experiment. They're to prevent false claims of reaching the 29,035 foot-high summit and to locate the climber if need be.
