Kathmandu [Nepal], May 13: One of the world's most skilled climbing guides on Mount Everest has reached the Earth's highest peak for the 29th time, beating his own record for most times to the summit, according to expedition organisers.
Kami Rita reached the 8,849-metre (29,032-foot) peak on Sunday, said Mingma Sherpa from Seven Summits Treks. He was reported to be in good health and already on his way down to lower camps of the mountain. "Back again for the 29th summit to the top of the world.One man's job, another man/woman's dream," Rita posted on his Instagram from base camp last week.
Rita first climbed Everest in 1994 and has been climbing to the top almost every year since, earning the nickname "Everest Man".
