Mt. Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest) climbers claim there was "nothing to do" to help dying man

Including renouncing to your climb in order to save a life? That was not possible?

It's quite something.

I can't stop reading about this. Apprently Everest is "riddled" with bodies as it's too hard to get them off the mountain. People who passed the British man claimed they thought it was the body of a different dead person. I don't think myself capable of climbing through a frozen graveyard to reach a summit.

"riddled"... that's quite something.

And now we've seen what it's all about... The team that just rescued an Australian guy had to abandon its own Everest climb in order to do so. It's all about the climb.
