Lynne Hanna, wife of renowned Irish climber Noel who died after descending the world’s 10th highest peak in Nepal on Monday night, has revealed how he could not have died in a more fitting place than in the Himalayas.
The 56-year-old was found dead inside his tent at Camp IV of Annapurna on Monday night after scaling the 26,545ft mountain without supplemental oxygen, officials said. He began scaling the mountain on Wednesday of last week. Camp IV is the final camp before the summit.
On Tuesday, Mingma Sherpa, chairman at Seven Summit Treks, reported Mr Hanna “breathed his last in Camp IV last night”.
