A BRITISH boy of two is believed to have become the youngest person to reach Everest base camp.
Carter Dallas made it to the south site in Nepal — 17,598ft above sea level.
He completed the trek on dad Ross’s back, with mum Jade, 31, alongside.
The trio, from Glasgow, are on a year-long trip around Asia.
A four-year-old from the Czech Republic was previously the youngest.
Ross, a former sales manager, said: “Carter coped better than me and his mum.
“We both got slight altitude sickness — but he was absolutely fine.
“There were two medics at the villages before base camp and they tested his blood to check he was fine, his results were way better than ours – they were amazed!
“We bought food jackets, and two sleeping bags for the trek – we basically did it on a whim.
“Within 24 hours of touching down in Kathmandu we started the trek.”
