Ice collapse impedes climbers
An ice collapse near the base of Mount Qomolangma has blocked the route of scores of climbers hoping to scale the world's highest peak, officials said yesterday.
No one was reported injured in the ice collapse on Wednesday but the route has been blocked for a few days, said Ang Tshering of the Nepal Mountaineering Association.
