Alyssa Azar Mount Everest Record

Alyssa's Everest Summit is a story of sheer determination, strength, courage and human endurance. After surviving two natural disasters on previous attempts, Alyssa has finally become the youngest Australian to reach the summit of Mount Everest. On May 21, the 19-year-old adventurer stood on the top of the highest mountain in the world, finally achieving a goal that was years in the making. How does it feel to achieve such a monumental dream? "It's mixed feelings because you're really excited and happy, but at the same time you know that you've still got to get back down," Alyssa said. She shared her moments of fear and triumph on the journey and described what it was like to stand on the summit. See the full interview below.
