A table in the name of CCA is booked for 6pm. \nGuest speakers:  Lakpa Sherpa and Chris Burke – climbing and trekking in the Himalaya\nLakpa Sherpa and Chris Burke \nLakpa Sherpa and Chris (Jensen) Burke have climbed many mountains in the Himalaya\, including Mount Everest\, K2\, Kanchenjunga and Annapurna. \nBetween them\, they have more than 25 x 8\,000m summits\, with Lakpa having multiple successful 8\,000m ascents\, with summits by both of them on 10 of the world’s highest peaks over 8\,000m. \nLakpa is also well known for his successful 18-pitch ice climb of the 800m+ ice-fall known as ‘Losar in Kwangde near Namche Bazaar in Nepal (2006). \nLakpa has led mountaineering expeditions\, treks and performed rescues throughout the Himalaya over many years\, having commenced his technical training at the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute in Darjeeling (India). For many years\, Lakpa had the most summits of Ama Dablam\, the jewel of Nepal’s Khumbu region. \nChris has trekked and climbed throughout the Himalaya and around the world more broadly\, having also completed the feat known as the ‘7 Summits’\, to climb to the summit of the highest peak on each of the 7 continents. Over the years\, she has also supported and raised funds for the education and refuge of women and girls in Nepal. \nChris and Lakpa are married and in the last year or so moved from their Sydney base to Canberra.
