Posted on April 7th, 2009 1 commentWorld record holder Apa Sherpa broke his own record of climbing the highest peak for the 18th time on 2008-05-22. Now, he is on his way to the top of the peak for the 19th time. Let’s wish him luck!
Appa Sherpa on his way to Mt. Everest to climb it for the 19th time.
He is preparing for the summit bid in May to raise awareness about climate change.
Apa climbed Mt. Everest for the first time nearly a couple of decades ago (on May 10th of 1990). If you are interested in his biography this page might be the best place to go for.
Before heading for the peak he was quoted as telling “I am not looking for recognition or doing this just to beat my own record. My objective is to highlight the environmental degradation of the mountain and draw attention to the issue of global warming”.
And,“… For us Sherpas, Everest is not just the mountain. Everest is our god. I want to see Everest clean and safe…”
Good Luck Apa for your noble mission!
