Em tradução de en:Lhakpa Sherpa


Lhakpa Sherpa (ou simplesmente Lakpa) é uma alpinista nepalesa. Ela escalou o Monte Everest sete vezes [1][2]..

Lhakpa cresceu em Makalu, Nepal [3]. Ela tem duas filhas e um filho[2] e foi casada com George Dijmarescu por 12 anos [2]. Eles se conheceram em 2000 em Katmandu, Nepal e se casaram em 2002 [4][5]. Em 2016, ela foi reconhecida como a mulher com maior número de escaladas ao Everest e completou sua sétima subida no mesmo ano.[5][1]


Em tradução:

Lhakpa grew up in Makalu Nepal, and in 2000 she was the leader of an expedition sponsored by Asian Trekking.[6] On September 18, 2000 she became the first Nepali woman to summit Mount Everest and survive (see also Pasang Lhamu Sherpa).[6] This climb was with the Nepali Women Millennium Expedition.[7]

In 2003, the U.S. PBS noted that she had summited Mount Everest three times, the most for a woman.[8] In May 2003 she reached the summit with her sister and brother; Ming Kipa and Mingma Gelu.[9] Her little sister Mingma reached the summit on May 22, 2003 when she was 15 years old (she climbed with Lhakpa and Gelu),[9] thus becoming the youngest woman and person known to have summited Mount Everest (see also Temba Tsheri and Jordan Romero ).[10][11] Her brother is Mingma Gelu Sherpa and is noted to have reached the summit of Mount Everest eight times by 2016.[2][5] The BBC noted that when three of them reached the summit together in 2003, that was the first group of three siblings on the summit at the same time, as recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records.[12] In 2004 there was an incident on the 2004 Connecticut Everest Expedition which caused some various discussions in the climbing.[13]

By 2007 George had summited Everest nine times since 1999 and Lhakpa six times.[14] That year they hosted a presentation about their 2007 Everest trip, with donations taken for Quaker Lane Cooperative Nursery School.[14] George and Lhapka summited Mount Everest 5 times together.[5] In 2008 George got cancer, which combined with medical bills was noted as one of the factors that created tension in the marriage.[15]

Lhapka is named for the day of the week she was born on (Wednesday).[5] Although born in Nepal, she is now a U.S. resident and a works at taking care of her three children and various jobs.[16] She has worked at the U.S. store 7 Eleven.[2][16] However, in interviews she noted her desire for the mountain, a condition previously seen in such climbers as George Mallory and Yuichiro Miura according to U.K media outlet The Daily Telegraph.[15]

In 2016 she summited Mount Everest from Tibet (China), making her seventh summit.[17] The president of Mount Everest Summiteers' Association, a Nepali women and high-altitude worker Maya Sherpa also summited, but from Nepal.[17] Maya Sherpa is another record-setting Nepali woman, and she has also summited K2.[17]
