Lhotse is the fourth highest mountain in the world,after Mount Everest, K2, and Kangchenjunga. The main summit is on the border between Tibet Autonomous Region of China and the Khumbu region of Nepal.
On May 27, 2026, Kristin Harila reached the summit of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen. The climb marked more than another Everest summit — it completed her Triple Crown: Nuptse, Lhotse and Everest in one single climbing season.
When Tenjen Lama Sherpa died in an avalanche, a couple months after setting the 14 peak world record, he left behind two sons. It was his greatest wish that these boys get the opportunities he never had: an education.
Kristin Harila has decided to stop her attempt to trek solo to the South Pole. The Norwegian Sámi mountaineer sustained a back injury early in the expedition and has been experiencing increasingly severe pain.
