A Nepal Sherpa who recently broke a record for most ascents of Mount Everest has climbed the world’s tallest mountain for the second time in less than a week.
Kami Rita, 53, reached the peak of the 29,032-foot mountain for the 28th time on Tuesday, Reuters reports, citing Nepal tourism official Bigyan Koirala.
“Kami Rita is on his way down from the summit,” added Thaneswar Guragai, the general manager of the Seven Summit Treks company that Rita works for.
