summited
Conquered the top
Summited is the past tense of summit used as a verb, meaning to reach the top of a mountain or peak: They summited Everest at dawn.
The usage emerged from mountaineering culture and remains most common in that context, though some consider it jargon.
We summited three peaks that summer.
