Nepal's Record Holding Tashi Gyalzen Sherpa Who Climbed Everest 4 Times In 15 Days Receives Heroic Welcome

Nepal's record-holding Tashi Gyalzen Sherpa carries his son as he walks out of the Domestic Terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, Nepal, on May 27, 2025, after becoming the first climber to summit Mount Everest four times in 15 days. Tashi rewrites history by summiting Everest 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. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
