Description
The body of German mountaineer Luis Stitzinger, who died on Kanchenjunga, the world's third-highest mountain, has been brought to Kathmandu. A search team of five Nepali guides found Stitzinger's body just below the peak at about 8,400 metres (27,600 feet) on Tuesday. He had gone missing last week when descending from the peak. The 54-year-old had reached the summit of the 8,586-metre-tall Himalayan mountain on May 25 without supplemental oxygen but then lost contact. IMAGES
