Mingma Sherpa and Chhang Dawa Sherpa have already climbed the 14 highest peaks in the world – every one of which is in Asia. Their youngest brother, Tashi Lakpa, who will join them on the worldwide adventure, has climbed six of those peaks.
The brothers are now setting out to climb the highest peaks in the seven continents and reach both the poles to become the ‘grand slam brothers of mountaineering’ in the climbing community
Mingma said they plan to complete the trip within a year and are paying for their adventure with their own money. The brothers operate the Seven Summits Treks in Kathmandu, which is the largest expedition organiser in the country.
