Searchers find 13th body from Everest avalanche

Search teams have recovered a 13th body from the snow and ice covering a dangerous climbing pass on Mount Everest, a day after an avalanche swept over a group of Sherpa guides in the deadliest disaster on the world’s highest peak.

Another three guides remain missing and searchers are working quickly to find them in case weather conditions deteriorate, said Maddhu Sunan Burlakoti, head of the Nepalese government’s mountaineering department.
