A Korean climber has died descending from the Summit of Everest from the North
side. A Japanese woman has also died descending from the North side of
Everest. Shoto Ota was with the
Adventure Guides QOMOLANGMA EXPEDITION 2004.
After the summit she lost
consciousness coming down and
died. She was 63.Other Korean climbers
and their Sherpa who had been attempting to save the life of the Korean climber
who died, and are now unaccounted for. It is unclear if the Sherpas are
accounted for.
On the South side of
Everest, a small team of Gustavo Lisi (Argentina) and
Nils Antezana (Bolivia) attempted the Summit with 2
Sherpas. Some of the members summited, but Dr. Nils Antezana got into
trouble on the way down. The guide returned from the Summit but then needed to
be helped down by the Pemb Sherpa
from the Irish expedition. The 2 Sherpas returned late from the Summit,
but are safe in camp 4.
Dr. Nils
Antezana is still believed to be up on Everest. His family asks for a plea of
help from whoever can. "THERE MUST BE A SEARCH PARTY SENT OUT FOR HIM!!!!"
We ask you to join us in prayer for these
families in this time of need.
