Today we received the heartbreaking news that Nims has been lost in the mountains.
From Louis, myself and everyone at ThruDark, we want to extend our deepest condolences to his wife, family, friends, teammates and the entire Nepalese climbing community.
Nims lived a life that most people could only dream of. He pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible in the mountains and inspired millions through his relentless belief that limitations exist to be challenged.
As fellow Special Forces veterans who dedicated our lives to serving our countries, we have immense respect for those who continue to pursue excellence in the world’s most demanding environments. Nims embodied that spirit. His courage, determination and unwavering commitment to his craft earned the respect of people across the globe.
The mountains have always demanded everything from those who choose to climb them. Today they have taken one of the greats.
Rest in peace, Nims.
Staz, Louis & everyone at ThruDark
