A Sherpa guide scaled the summit of Mount Everest on Sunday for the 26th time, equalling the record set by a Nepalese guide for the most ascents of the world’s highest peak.
Pasang Dawa Sherpa, aged 46, reached the summit (8,849-m peak) on Sunday morning along with a Hungarian climber, according to expedition organiser Imagine Nepal Treks.
Dawa, who made his first successful climb in 1998, matched the record number of summits with Kami Rita Sherpa.
