A mixed construction occurs when a sentence starts with one grammatical structure and shifts to another, creating confusion. The original sentence "Without the aid of supplemental oxygen, climbers struggle to reach the top of Mt. Everest" has a clear logical relationship: the prepositional phrase "Without the aid of supplemental oxygen" modifies the subject "climbers" and the predicate "struggle...". There is no shift in grammatical structure or illogical connection. The proposed edits introduce unnecessary complexity or change the natural flow. So the original sentence has no errors.
