🚨 Bodies of Two Missing Japanese Climbers Found on Gangapurna West, Nepal

Rescuers have found the bodies of Japanese climbers Hidesuke Taneishi, 40, and Tetsu Hashimoto, 25, on the south side of Gangapurna West (7,140m) in Nepal’s Annapurna region.

The two climbers were attempting the mountain’s first ascent when they lost contact on October 15 at approximately 7,050 metres during their summit push. After locating their higher camp, rescue teams continued the search and finally discovered their bodies on the mountain’s southern face.

The discovery brings a tragic end to the search for the two climbers, who were pursuing a challenging first ascent in the Himalayas. Our heartfelt condolences go out to their families, friends, and the mountaineering community. 🕯️🇳🇵🇯🇵
