With heavy hearts, we share this tribute. 🕯️🏔️

It is almost impossible to believe, yet tragically true: Nepal and the global mountaineering community have lost some of their brightest and most heroic stars in the devastating Broad Peak avalanche in Pakistan.

We mourn Nirmal Purja—our beloved Nims Dai—along with Pur Bahadur Gurung (Yukta), Kili Pemba Sherpa (Kilu), Nima Sherpa, Gyalu Sherpa, Nawang Thindu Sherpa and all the mountaineers who lost their lives.

Their extraordinary courage and achievements inspired people around the world and carried Nepal’s mountaineering legacy to the highest summits.

Nepal Nature Treks & Tours Pvt. Ltd. extends its deepest condolences to their families, friends and the entire mountaineering community.

May their departed souls rest in eternal peace. Their legacies will live forever. 🙏
