Like, what’s going on?’”The two climbers were aiming to be the first to summit Chaukhamba III in the Himalayas. They spent three days waiting for rescue before venturing down the mountain by themselves, until they were found by a French climbing team. Negi, the information officer, said Indian authorities had reached out to the French team for assistance after being unable to locate Manners and Dvorak. The Indian Air Force then airlifted them to a nearby hospital on Sunday, three long days after they were stranded. She wants to try the summit again next year – perhaps with the French team who rescued them.
