Response to Half of Living 900 Everest Summiters Expected in Nepal 50th Anniversary Celebration
Appa Sherpa, 42, reached the top of the world's highest mountain at 3:41 am (12:56am AEST Monday) to break his own record of 12 ascents, it said.
Already a legend, Appa has been to the top almost every year since 1990, doing the arduous trip twice in 1992.
