Tashi rewrites history by summiting Everest a record four times within 15 days. The 29-year-old Sherpa from Phortse, Solukhumbu, creates history in mountain climbing on May 23, making his fourth successful ascent of Mount Everest in just 15 days. Tashi is also a member of the rope-fixing team from the 8K Expedition this year, who stands atop Everest on May 9, opening ways for other climbers to reach the summit. Tashi Gyalzen reaches the summit point at around 3:13 AM for the fourth time on May 23. The Sherpa climber this season climbs the world's highest peak on May 9, 14, 19, and 23. In 2019, he stands on Everest's summit for the first time. Since then, he has reached the peak three times from the Nepal side and once from the Tibetan side.

    NEPAL Changri Nup Glacier -- Dec 2005 -- In the danger-zone...morrain rubble on the Changri Nup Glacier. As the glacier melts, it spews out thousands of rocks, often destroying marker cairns and causing a hazard for travellers, like the photographer who almost died on a night crossing of this pass. Scientists say these huge Himalayan glaciers are melting fast which could threaten Asia's water supply in the future having a devastating impact on the region's agriculture -- Picture © Jon Mitchell / Lightroom Photos (FOTO:DUKAS/GRANANGULAR)
