Many Mount Everest records are held by Nepali, especially those from the Sherpa region.
- On 11 May 2011, Apa Sherpa successfully reached the summit of Everest for the twenty-first time, breaking his own record for the most successful ascents.[115] He first climbed Mount Everest in 1989 at the age of 29.[116]
- Phurba Tashi Sherpa (also 21 times)
- Kami Rita Sherpa (21 times by 2017)
- One famous Nepalese female mountaineer was Pasang Lhamu Sherpa, the first Nepali female climber to reach the summit of Everest, but who died during the descent. Another well-known woman Sherpa was the two-time Everest summiter Pemba Doma Sherpa, who died after falling from Lhotse on 22 May 2007.[117]
- Nepali mountaineer Lhakpa Sherpa, the first Nepali female climber to reach the summit of Everest and descend from it, has stood atop of Everest 7 times by 2016 and 8 times by 2017, the most times for woman.[118][119]
- Nima Jangmu Sherpa, 28, made the historic ascent on Mt Kanchenjunga on 23 May 2018 morning and became the only woman in the world to climb Nepal’s three highest peaks (Mt Everest -14 May 2018, Mt Lhotse - 29 April 2018, Mt Kanchenjunga – 23 May 2018) above 8,000 metres in a single season within 25 days. She has also become the only Nepali woman to stand atop the world’s third highest peak, Mt Kanchenjunga.[10]
Other examples of noted Nepali Everest mountaineers:
- Temba Tsheri
- Nima Chhamzi Sherpa
- Nimdoma Sherpa
- Ming Kipa
- Chhurim
About names: Many Nepalese are only given one name, and are often named for a day of the week
One source of confusion was in record keeping was that the South side was essentially closed in 2014 due to an avalanche disrupting the Khumbu Icefall. So most of the summiters summited from the North side, except for a small group that flew a helicopter over the Khumbu Icefall, even though it was not open. This is why in 2016 Adrian Ballinger said on Instagram "9 Sherpa using supplemental oxygen became the first to summit on the South Side of Everest in the past 3 years" in 2016.[120] The full Nepal route to the summit was not open in 2014 or in 2015, but there was a group that summited from the south side in 2014 as part of a Chinese team that used a helicopter to reach that area.[120]
Most summits in one day
For the Mountain overall, the most in one day is May 19, 2012 when 179-234 reached the top.[121][122][123]
