Five Bodies Found on Nepal’s Yalung Ri | Kalamazoo News

Five climbers vanished on Yalung Ri last November after an avalanche — now, rescue teams have spotted five bodies on the 18,000-foot peak, believed to be the missing trio of foreigners and two Nepali climbers. Workers from a hiking company stumbled upon them as melting snow revealed the remains. Two other climbers — an Italian and a Frenchman — died at base camp before the avalanche. Weather delays hamper recovery efforts, but officials are preparing to confirm identities and recover the bodies, a grim reminder of the deadly risks on this treacherous Himalayan peak.
