Hi, I am Satyadeep Gupta, I belong to Puranpur, Uttar Pradesh. I am a marine engineer and a mountaineer.

I am very much inclined towards outdoor activities like sky diving, trail running, and rock climbing. Born and brought up in a simple family I did my Marine engineering from MERI Kolkata in 2007. Thereafter I started pursuing my passion for adventure sports.

When I was introduced to the field of mountaineering, I picked up many technical skills and knowledge about planning and climbing a mountain. The courses I did were the basic and advanced mountaineering Courses from Nehru Institute of Mountaineering, Uttarkashi, I graduated with an A grade after completing expeditions to mountain peaks that were above 6000 and 7000 m.

My aim is to become the first Indian to climb MOUNT Makalu (8463 m) without supplementary oxygen in this coming May 2023. I also aim to achieve a world record by climbing both Mount Everest (8848 m) and Mount Lhotse (8481 m) within a month in 2024.

Currently, I am the first and only person from my state, Uttar Pradesh, to have received an award of 15 Lakh after summiting Mount Kanchenjunga in 2022. I intend to improve and create a world record in 2024.

Failure is the Mother of Success

After eight years of failures, my first summit was finally realised. This kept my dream of becoming a high-altitude mountaineer alive. At the same time, I would also want to promote adventure sports in our country. With that dream in mind, I am pushing for more and skydiving is one of them. I sincerely hope one day, India could become an adventure sports powerhouse!

The Road Ahead

The next mountains I am attempting are MT Makalu (8463 m) (5th highest in the world)in April-May 2023 without using bottled oxygen (first Indian to do this) and Mt Everest in May 2024.

I am looking for sponsorship for my next Projects. With your contribution, I will be able to move on to inspire more youngsters to follow their aspirations. In return, I will proudly carry your brand on my equipment and plant a flag bearing your brand on the summit. Attempting the death zone
