Anshu Jamsenpa, a native of Bomdila in Arunachal Pradesh, conquered Mount Everest, the world’s highest peak on Tuesday morning for the fourth time, setting a new record. Managing Director at Dream Himalaya Adventure, Dawa S Lama said that Anshu, along with Furi Sherpa scaled the world’s highest peak successfully.
A mother of two teenage children, Anshu scaled Mount Everest twice in May 2011 and again two years later. Anshu’s expedition was flagged off this year by His Holiness Dalai Lama on 2nd April from Guwahati. Anshu had started the summit expedition after 38 days of acclimatization, climbing several nearby peaks and passes and load ferry from Everest Base Camp from April 4 to May 12.
On 13th May, she started at 2.30 AM for the final summit and reached on top of the Everest at 9 AM on 16th of May to unfurl the Indian National Flag.
Officials at the Everest Base Camp at Kathmandu spoke to Anshu via satellite phone after unfurling the Indian Tri-colour and clicking testimonial photos. Meanwhile, her husband Tsering Wange informed that she is yet to reach the base camp.
