Five Russian climbers lost their lives during an mission on Mount Dhaulagiri, the world’s eighth highest peak, according to reports from a Kathmandu-based mission administrator. The climbers, who were tackling the 8, 167-meter ( 26, 788-foot ) mountain, were reported missing on Sunday. Their bodies were found by a recovery plane on Tuesday.
The treatment of the body is still a mystery due to the complexity of the project, including the need for extensive organizing, human resources, and specific products to transport them from such a high-altitude area, according to Pemba Jangbu Sherpa from I AM Trekking and Excursions.
Of the five climbing, two had safely reached the summit, while the others turned up before completing the journey. After the climbing began their origin, contact was lost with the basic camp group.
The fall climbing season in Nepal, which is less common than flower, started last month. This year has fewer masses and lower force charges, which draws in a smaller amount of climbers.
A record number of climbers are gathered in Tibet to pursue the goal of summiting all 14 of the world’s peaks above 8, 000 meters ( 26, 250 feet ).
