TRUDGING through knee-deep snow one moment, only to be pelted by icy rain the next, the determined eight-member crew from Tamil Nadu walked through the terrains of The Himalayas. The greatest challenge they faced was the ever-changing climate itself.
The ground beneath their feet shifted unpredictably, transforming from solid rock to treacherous mud with each passing day.
This team was formed by their shared love for adventure and a mutual determination to challenge their limits, led by Fredrick, a professional mountaineer. On May 16, adding to his list of achievements, Fredrick celebrated his 50th expedition to The Himalayas. This time he took nine-year-old Yazhini and the sub-inspector of the Tamil Nadu police, Prithika Yashini, to the base camp. Yazhini became the youngest person from Tamil Nadu to reach the Base Camp and Prithika became the first trans woman in India to reach 5,364 metres of altitude at Everest Base Camp.
