A search team retrieves the body of top US ski mountaineer Hilaree Nelson from the Himalayas, two days after she disappeared on the slopes of Nepal
Nelson, 49, was described by her sponsor, The North Face, as"the most prolific ski mountaineer of her generation".
"The search team that left this morning on a helicopter spotted her body and is bringing her back," Jiban Ghimire of Shangri-La Nepal Trek, which organised the expedition, told AFP news agency on Wednesday. Nelson, 49, is described by her sponsor, The North Face, as "the most prolific ski mountaineer of her generation".
In 2018, she returned to Lhotse and made the first ski descent of the mountain, which earned her the National Geographic Adventurer of the Year award.
