Chinese mountaineers rescue Australian climber

This year, the region started its annual spring mountain climbing activities in early April, and since then 144 overseas and 12 domestic climbers have been approved to attempt to conquer the mountain.

According to the latest information from the Tibet Himalaya Expedition Co, by Thursday morning, 12 climbers from the company and 21 mountaineering guides successfully reached the summit of the mountain from the northern slope.

Tsering Samdrub, general manger of the company, said with significant training long for 43 days, 12 Chinese climbers made it to the summit.

“The weather on Thursday was so nice. Thanks to this, the climbers were all in very good condition,” said Tsering Samdrub, commander-in-chief of ongoing spring climbing.

“Hampered by weather factors this year, the final climbing period to the summit was later than the previous year, and climbers from different countries all take this opportunity to complete their climbing,” said Samdrub.

Samdrub also said more than 200 climbers are huddled together, which has led to one-two hour postponements of climbing times.

“After from the Chinese climbers who made it to the summit, eight climbing teams from countries such as Russia and India are ready to conquer the summit.”
