Adventure Consultants report on summits and people by 2016:[112]

For example in 2013 two different Kami Rita Sherpa high-altitude workers summited with different guide firms.[431]
^ The Himalayan Database gave Ngima Nuru Sherpa 20 ascents until 2019 (22 adding those of 2022 that are not yet registered).[23]
