Mount Everest, May 17 th <strong>2010</strong><br />
On Saturday, May 8th, a Russian climber lost his live at the Lhotse Face at 7`800 meters. The<br />

from Everest camp 2 at 6`500 meters. One was the Russian climber mentioned above; the<br />
other one was a Swiss climber who died at the Hillary Step two years before.<br />
In coordination with Kari Kobler and Dario Schwörer the dead body of the Swiss climber was<br />
