Since 1966, every generation of KMA has climbed higher so the next could see farther.

60 years later, that spirit stands on top of the world.
At 8,850 metres, Chinmayee and Santhosh carried forward a legacy built over six remarkable decades — a legacy of courage, resilience, mentorship, friendship, and an unshakable belief in pushing beyond limits.
