In loving memory of Nadhira Al Harthy (1978–2026)
The first Omani woman to summit Mount Everest, and one of the few to stand atop K2, Manaslu, and Nanga Parbat. A geography teacher, curriculum developer, and Deputy Director General at Oman Scouts and Guides, she spent her life shaping young minds as much as she conquered peaks.
On July 30, Nadhira lost her life in an avalanche on Broad Peak, Pakistan, doing what she loved most. She didn't just break barriers, she opened doors for a generation of Omani women to dream bigger.
Forever summiting. Forever remembered. 🏔️
We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and all who were inspired by her courage.
