Tragedy Strikes Annapurna: Climbers Lost and Airlifted.
A climber died and many were rescued on Annapurna after getting stuck in bad weather, running out of supplies, and sustaining frostbite. Helicopters were used for high-risk rescues, and hope is fading for a climber who fell into a crevasse. There is contradictory information about missing climbers, but at least one was found alive and airlifted to the hospital. Polish climbers Bartek Ziemski and Oswald Rodrigo Pereira successfully summited and Ziemski skied down. A major storm is forecasted to hit Nepal's mountains, and trekkers are advised to stay away from high passes.
