New ’14 Peaks’ Record

27 July 2023

Anna Callaghan for Outside:

Norwegian mountaineer Kristin Harila and Nepalese climber Tenjin Sherpa Set New Speed Record on the 8000ers (by) completing the 8000-meter peaks in 92 days, breaking Nirmal (Nims) Purja’s record by over three months.

Incredible feat and especially worth highlighting that this overall record is now held by a mixed team.

Gear is getting better and better, especially weather forecasting gear, so the main hurdles to overcome seems to be permitting and route preparations. And as governments make it easier to obtain permits and routes being set more and more consistent, it’s only a matter of time for more of these type of high mountaineering records to be broken in the coming years.
