[quote=FAERIEQUEENE,237085]any further news of him? Just googled and found this piece of a climber's body found after 26 years!! Reuters - 12 June 2007 Australian and Chinese rescuers searching for a missing Melbourne climber near the Tibetan border have reportedly found a body believed to be that of a mountaineer who disappeared 26 years ago. China's Xinhua news agency says villagers reported the discovery on Mount Gongga to the rescuers searching for 47-year-old Andrew Clem Lindenmayer. Mr Lindenmayer went missing last month in south-west China's Sichuan province. A rescue official has told Xinhua the clothing and equipment on the located body indicate it might be a member of a Japanese team that went missing in 1981. A 12-strong mountaineering team from Hokkaido, Japan, climbed Mount Gongga in May 1981, but eight members disappeared after a fall. Mount Gongga has more than 20 peaks above 6,000 metres, the highest at 7,556 metres.[/quote]
