"A Historic Achievement on the Roof of the World"
We at Himalayan Guides Nepal Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd. are incredibly proud to congratulate renowned American mountaineer and expedition leader Garrett Madison on his remarkable 16th successful ascent of Mt. Everest this morning. With this milestone, he becomes the second non-Nepali climber in history to achieve the most Everest summits, following legendary British climber Kenton Cool.
Garrett has been an integral part of our family, climbing and collaborating with us from the very beginning of his Himalayan journey.
Garrett Madison, founder of Madison Mountaineering and one of America’s premier Everest guides, reached the summit at approximately 9:50 AM-(2026-05-27). We are thrilled to share that he achieved this historic feat alongside four climbers from Himalayan Guides Nepal Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd., all under the expert leadership and unwavering support of our experienced Sherpa team.
Having started his professional guiding career in 1999 on Mount Rainier, Garrett continues to inspire the global mountaineering community with his dedication, leadership, and passion for the mountains.
This incredible milestone comes after Kenton Cool’s record 20th Everest summit this season, while legendary Nepali climber Kami Rita Sherpa continues to hold the all-time world record with 32 Everest ascents.
Congratulations to Garrett Madison and all the climbers on this extraordinary success! As his trusted partner since day one, Himalayan Guides Nepal Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd. is deeply honored to have been part of his historic journey on the world’s highest peak, ensuring safety and excellence every step of the way.
