Summary
[edit]DescriptionIndian Navy Mount Everest Expedition - 2017 (7).jpg |
English: The Indian Naval Mountaineering team comprising eleven summiteers (9 on Mt Everest & 2 on Lhotse) have successfully unfurled National flag and Naval Ensign atop highest point on earth i.e. Mt. Everest and thereby achieving this remarkable feat under challenging conditions. The expedition was headed by Cdr Sanjay Kulkarni (Oi/c expedition) and comprised 18 climbers for Mt Everest; two climbers for Lhotse and four base camp members. The team followed the route from Jiri and trekked to Everest base camp covering over 180 km in 16 days of arduous climb, gradually gaining height and also acclimatising in the process from 05 to 20 April 2017.
The climbers were divided into two teams (A and B) comprising 9 members each. The first attempt was made by Team A and four members scaled the peak in the wee hours of the morning on 21 May 2017. Lt Shashank Tewari, the first to summit, said that the words of the legendary Indian mountaineer Capt MS Kohli, “One more step”, kept echoing in his mind and urging him to reach the top. The conditions were tough owing to high wind speeds and a beeline of climbers causing blockades. It was their mental resolve to accomplish the Naval mission which made them reach the summit. |
