Prayer for Hillary and Jim... Jim, especially has faced astounding loss in his life. I hope he knows people really care about him.
Having a partner to train with would be amazing…losing that partner would be devastating…

Feel so bad for her kids. RIP
R.I.P for Nelson
Hilaree Nelson went missing during avalanche in Manaslu, Gorkha, Nepal today
Hope she is still alive but i fear not . Its a sad day
nothing got to do with the avalanche..she fell into crevasse while skiing down from manaslu
Looks like a job just opened up at the North face.🤔
@@comptonoverland7442 very funny...not
@@ONCEuponAtime999 We are all gonna die but not everyone lives.
Prayers Hilaree is found safe 🙏🏻
Do these people ever actually work?
I question how kind it is to have a dog involved in with what could be a dangerous sport
dog is living a better life than most people. How kind is it to have a dog cooped up in a yard and to only have a few walks a day?
When a passion turns to a single-minded obsession and tunnel vision. You can’t do that on the Himalayas and expect to come back triumphant, not even once, and after that - you should know better. RIP. -Shine on you…
Very sad, she made the one mistake that a mountaineer know's not to do, she took a huge risk. The weather was bad, she knew it wasn't safe. Had she just held back and tried it next year it would have been different. This summit doesn't count as she didn't get back. Rip
They gotta go in bad conditions to get money from sponsors. They needed another million.
Money is why a lot of bad things happen. Look at the 1996 Everest disaster. Both Rob Hall and Scott Fischer were vying to get their clients up after some unsuccessful previous attempts. The magazines were also watching. Now they certainly gave us a story, just not the one they hoped for.
I have a theory about this-she was openly frustrated on this trip and even said she was “hopelessly homesick.” She also knew she was getting older and she did usher more young women into the sport, and she was okay without being the pioneer anymore. They turned around a couple times, but I think she was over the entire mountain by the time they summited and was probably counting on the fact that it is *slightly* less risky to ski than climb for descent-it’s quicker. I just think she wanted to get home and get it behind her. He dropped in on north and I don’t know why they decided she would drop in on south and swing around and meet him but that was the error in judgement. I dont know how the hell he made it down after that. I have backcountry skied almost my entire life - nowhere near her or his level of skill but I would have been immediately spooked and probably would have made a mistake myself. I give him credit for surviving.
I find it odd she is a married woman and spending more time with partner than husband. Also it's pretty selfish she is only focused on her own life and not family.
Very Very sad, but, ... PREDICTABLE. Rest in peace both... but above all peace to your families, who go through unfathomable irrevocable loss., ... having to wittness horrible family death. No place to do, not even ONE, mistake. Specialy a forseeable one. Never do you do Manaslu (or any other)... with impending BAD WEATHER.🙏
