Kami Rita’s Mt Everest climbing journey

Kami Rita, born and raised in the Sherpa community near Mount Everest, began his career by carrying things as a porter. Later, he started guiding climbers up the mountain.

  • In 2023, Kami Rita tied the record for the most ascents with fellow guide Pasang Dawa Sherpa, both having completed 27 climbs. But by May 2023, Kami Rita surpassed this record by achieving his 28th ascent.
