Karsang
Tendup, the first Yak Man to summit Cho Oyu
and then Everest in 2001
|
Karsang
Tendup, became the first Yak Man to reach the Summit
of Everest in 2001.
"For me personally, I am very pleased
that Karsang the Tibetan yak man who lives in the
local valley system, and who has worked for me as a
camp support man for the last 4 years, reached the
summit. During the time that he has worked for me, he
has always shown an interest to learn new skills.
Several years ago he asked if he could attempt the
summit of Everest as he can see this from his house.
Last year we took him to the North Col as part of his
initial training. Then last season he went to the
summit of Cho Oyo on the same day as Marco and Ellen.
So he had ample experience to summit Everest this
year.",

On
May 23th 2001, Karsang Tendup, fulfilled his dream and
became the first Yak Man to reach the Summit of
Everest in 2001.
