A 73-year-old Japanese woman has
climbed Mount Everest, breaking her own record to again become the
oldest woman to scale the world's highest mountain.
Ang Tshering of the China Tibet Mountaineering Association says
Tamae Watanabe reached Everest's 8850-metre-high summit from the
northern side of the mountain in Tibet on Saturday morning with four
other team members.
Tshering says Watanabe and the other team members are in good condition and are on their way back to the base of the mountain.
Watanabe had climbed Everest in 2002 at the age of 63 to become the oldest woman to scale the mountain.
