Indian-German Climber and Nepali Sherpa Die in Mount Manaslu Avalanche
An Indian-German climber, Dhruva Jyoti Guha, and his Nepali Sherpa guide, Fursemba Sherpa, died after an avalanche struck their tent at Camp 3 on Mount Manaslu, Nepal. They had advanced from Camp 2 despite adverse weather and were buried under about seven feet of snow. Rescue teams recovered their bodies, with efforts underway to bring them to base camp for transport to Kathmandu. These deaths raise the season's fatalities on Manaslu to four, including earlier incidents involving a Singaporean climber and a Nepali guide.
