The body of American ski mountaineer Hilaree Nelson was found Wednesday, two days after she fell off the world’s eighth-highest mountain.
Nelson, a 49-year-old mother of two, had been skiing down Mount Manaslu in Nepal when she disappeared into a crevasse near the peak Monday, according to expedition guides.
Her body was recovered early Wednesday and “she will be on her way home soon,” tour company Elite Exped said in a statement.
