Dawa Sherpa, a Nepali climbing guide known as "Hillary", has been found alive after disappearing on Mount Everest for six days during harsh conditions. The incident occurred on May 30 when Sherpa, in his 50s, stopped to rest while descending from Camp Four at approximately 7,950 metres. British climber Chris Thrall, who summited Everest with him on May 29 around 5:00 pm, reported that Sherpa told him, "Yes, yes, fine Chris, please go, go!" before he continued downward. Thrall then assisted a Polish climber suffering from frostbite and oxygen depletion, descending over 11 hours to Camp Three instead of returning for Sherpa.
