NEPAL-SPAIN-SKOREA-CLIMBING
Spanish climber Juanito Oiarzabal (C), who reached the summit of Mount Annapurna on April 27, returns to base camp in Nepal on April 29, 2010. Spanish climber Tolo Calafat, who suffered swelling on the brain while descending Nepal's famed Mount Annapurna in the Himalayas, died on April 29 before he could be rescued, Oiarzabal, a climbing partner said. Oiarzabal, a veteran of 24 ascents of peaks over 8,000 metres, denounced what he said was a growing lack of "solidarity" amongst climbers, in a reference to the reluctance he said that South Korea climber Oh Eun-Sun team displayed to help Calafat. Oiarzabal was more critical on April 28, telling Cadena Ser that Oh "did not help at all, she did nothing, because according to her it was not her responsibility." Oh's claim to have scaled all 14 mountains over 8,000 metres has been challenged by some experts, who doubt she reached the summit of Mount Kanchenjunga on the Nepal-Tibet border last year as claimed.
