Ricky Mountaineer
Born on 25 July 1994 in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, I am Ricky Mountaineer — a climber shaped by the mountains, driven by passion, and built through perseverance. Growing up in the Himalayas gave me a deep connection to nature, adventure, and the spirit of exploration from an early age.
I have successfully climbed more than 30 peaks, including two 7000-meter summits. As the Founder of White Expedition, I have led over 100 expeditions across Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh, and Sikkim. My certifications include BMC, AMC, Search & Rescue, and Wilderness First Responder.
My Vision
To promote Indian mountaineering and showcase the incredible potential of the Indian Himalayas. Through White Expedition, I aim to make mountaineering in India safe, responsible, and accessible while inspiring the new generation of adventurers.
