Record-breaking Nepali mountaineer Nima Rinji Sherpa, the young prodigy from Nepal's Makalu region, has been awarded seven Guinness World Records, further cementing his place in mountaineering history as one of the most accomplished young climbers of his generation.
The Guinness World Records has officially recognized a record-setting achievement by a Nepali Sherpa climber who amazed the mountaineering world during last spring season.
Record-holding Chinese mountaineer He Jing and her Sherpa climbing partners were felicitated in the capital after returning from the historic first winter ascent of two previously unclimbed peaks in Upper Mustang.
