Mount Everest Day
"Does the road wind uphill all the way?
Yes, to the very end.
Will the day’s journey take the whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend.
But is there for the night a resting-place?
A roof for when the slow dark hours begin.
May not the darkness hide it from my face?
You cannot miss that inn.
Shall I meet other wayfarers at night?
Those who have gone before.
Then must I knock, or call when just in sight?
They will not keep you standing at that door.
Shall I find comfort, travel-sore and weak?
Of labour you shall find the sum.
Will there be beds for me and all who seek?
Yea, beds for all who come."
~ Uphill, Christina Rossetti, 1861
Inspired by the upward struggle we all face throughout life, this tartan honors the spirit of perseverance that carries us onward, one step at a time. It’s only fitting that this design is shared on May 29—Mt. Everest Day—when Nepal pays tribute to one of the most awe-inspiring triumphs of human determination: the first successful summit of Mount Everest in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary of New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa of Nepal. Their legendary climb not only brought them to the top of the world but also became a lasting symbol of resilience, partnership, and courage in the face of overwhelming odds. Across Kathmandu and the Everest region, the day is marked with processions, tributes, and ceremonies that honor both the climbers and the Sherpa community, whose quiet strength remains vital to every Himalayan journey.
In remembrance of those who have conquered towering mountains of stone and ice—and in admiration of those who quietly face and overcome the everyday peaks and challenges life sets before them. 💗 💙 💛 🤍 🖤 🗻 🗻 🗻
