Kanchenjunga is a serious undertaking. The third highest mountain in the world represents the toughest climb – technical and requiring huge skill - it’s a must for any serious mountaineer’s bucket list.

@Atalthani and I did the summit push in two days on this most difficult of mountains. We smashed it from Base Camp to Camp 2 and then Camp 2 to the summit, with a few hours rest at Camp 3.

Huge respect to Asma for smashing this one because she wasn’t feeling great at the beginning of the climb. But after a few hours’ sleep we cracked on and I’m very proud to have helped once again guide this incredibly determined person. She becomes the First Arabic to summit Kanchenjunga – huge congratulations and respect!

We started with Kanchenjunga – we summitted 10:50 am on 7th May.

Here’s how we did it:

5th May – We climbed from Base Camp to Camp 2.

6th May – We started the summit push (with a few hours break at Camp 3) and we summited Kanchenjunga at 10:50 am on 7th May.

Then on to Everest.
