Ang Jangbu Sherpa
Co-founder · Director · Everest summiteer
Jangbu grew up in Phortse in the Khumbu and studied at the Hillary school there. He trained under Colonel Jimmy Roberts, founder of Nepal's first trekking company, and has led dozens of treks and expeditions across Nepal and Tibet.
Off the clock
After a lifetime in the mountains, Jangbu still heads into them for the sheer joy of it. He's a keen mountain biker and a trekker at heart, happiest on two wheels on a rough mountain trail or on foot with a pack on his back, finding a path he hasn't walked yet.
