A Nepali guide believed to have died on Mount Everest is reported to have been found alive after six days missing at higher altitude. According to multiple outlets, Dawa Sherpa disappeared above base camp, prompting concern among his family, who reportedly began preparing funeral rites in his absence. Several days later, workers at Everest Base Camp, including cleaners, spot a figure crawling down the ice toward base camp. The reports describe the sighting as unexpected and unusual, with Sherpa moving back to the area where support staff are present. The accounts agree that the sighting occurs roughly six days after he went missing and that the individual is identified as Sherpa by those at base camp. The coverage describes the event as a “miracle” but does not add further detail on the circumstances of his disappearance, his condition, or how he survives in the interim beyond being seen returning to base camp. Further information beyond the reports’ shared core facts is not provided in the supplied summaries.
