 ‘First Indian Women to Scale Mt. Everest twice in a span of just 10 days (2011)’

‘Only Mother to Scale Mt. Everest thrice, world record (2013)’

‘Concurring three 6000+ meter peaks consistently in just 6 days (2014)’

 

While these achievements were not enough, Mountaineer Anshu Jamsenpa once again is all set to do double ascent of Mt. Everest.

 

Anshu jamsenpa hails from Bomdila, a remote town in Arunachal Pradesh and is a mother of 2. At an event at the Arunachal House in the national capital recently, Anshu was handed over a cheque of Rs.10 lakh by some private sponsors in the presence of former governor of Arunachal Pradesh General J J Singh, who has been a major support for Anshu since the beginning of her career. This time Anshu Jamsenpa plans to climb with an ambition to promote a cause.

"When I started it, very few people knew about mountaineering and adventure sports. Arunachal is a goldmine for adventure sports, but people are not aware. After my successful climbing, I have been able to create awareness among the masses. This time also I am very positive and hopeful. I am trying to get a mountaineering policy in our state and I think my double ascent will boost that," revealed Anshu.

She is also vigorously supporting the cause of breast cancer through her expedition. "I have chosen this cause because it is mostly related to women folk and it is a fatal disease so I have decided to support this cause. This year I am trying for double ascent. I have already done it in 2011 but I have done it in 10 days and this time I will try to do it in even less time. But ultimately it will all depend on weather conditions," she said.

 

She will begin her journey on April 4, proceed to the Kathmandu base by April 6 and is expected to complete her expedition around the last week of May. The young achiever has received many awards since she started her mountaineering career in 2010. Anshu conducts training programs for youth in mountaineering and other adventure activities to generate interest in the field and is keen to open her institute.
