Jamling Tenzing Norgay
Jamling Tenzing Norgay is the son of legendary Sherpa climber Tenzing Norgay, who famously reached the summit of Mount Everest alongside Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953. Born and raised in the Khumbu region of Nepal, Jamling followed in his father's footsteps by summiting Everest himself in 1996, during a tragic season that claimed the lives of several climbers. He is an advocate for the preservation of the mountain environment and often speaks out against the commercialization of Everest, emphasizing its sacredness to the Sherpa people. Jamling has authored a book titled 'Closer to My Father,' which reflects on his experiences with climbing and the legacy of his father. He continues to raise awareness about the ecological challenges facing Everest and the cultural impacts of mountaineering tourism.
