A Woman's Team Climbs the Peak Lenen

A team of eight Russian women attempted to become the first female climbers to summit Mount Everest. The group was caught in a storm that killed 13, including one woman who died as she helped others down from the peak. They radioed for help but were unable to reach them due to strong winds and low temperatures. Their final message read: We are very sorry we tried, but we could not. Please forgive us. Good bye.
