Sherpas are known for their exceptional strength and endurance, often carrying loads of 40 to 50 pounds (18 to 23 kg) or more while trekking in high-altitude conditions. In some cases, they can carry loads exceeding 70 pounds (32 kg) during expeditions. Their ability to acclimatize to high altitudes allows them to perform these demanding tasks efficiently, making them invaluable in mountaineering and trekking expeditions.
