The body of Shriya Shah-Klorfine on Mt. Everest, 300m below the summit. 19 hours of climbing she reached the top and spent 25 minutes celebrating, began her descent, ran out of oxygen and died of exhaustion…
Why are the bodies left on Mt. Everest and are not returned to the families?
Summiting Everest requires a great deal of money, and it’s quite treacherous. Every corpse you see on Everest is someone who died on the way to the summit or on the way back. It’s hard enough to do it carrying all of the gear (oxygen bottles, tent gear, clothing, food, climbing gear, so on) that they have to carry. To attempt the same feat carrying a dead body along the way? Most people aren’t willing to risk joining the person they’d be trying to bring back.
