145 expeditions, of which 86 put someone on the summit. 443 summits (272 by members, 171 by hired staff) and 7 deaths, among 902 members and 230 hired staff recorded.
Summits count member records: someone who summited twice on one expedition counts once, someone on two expeditions in the season counts twice.
