Kaamya Karthikeyan: ‘Summiting Everest was a dream my father and I shared for years’
Hindustan TimesAt just 17, Kaamya Karthikeyan has achieved what many mountaineers only dream of: she became the youngest woman to climb the highest peaks across all seven continents, including the towering Mount Everest, alongside her father. Kaamya Karthikeyan is the youngest woman to have climbed all the highest peaks across 7 continents. The Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, during an interaction with awardees, told her that the accolade should serve as a “stepping stone to even more success in the future.” Kaamya reflects, “That is something I strived to follow and live up to.” Looking ahead, Kaamya has set her sights on an even more ambitious challenge: completing the Explorer's Grand Slam, which involves scaling the Seven Summits and skiing to both the North and South Poles. “I aim to become the youngest person in the world to complete the Explorer's Grandslam by climbing the Seven Summits and skiing to the North and South Poles.
