Expedition organizers say bad weather was preventing the retrieval of two bodies of climbers who died on Mount Everest and the search for two who disappeared near the summit.
Most climbers have finished their attempts to reach the summit, but those still trying Wednesday were having problems with the low visibility, wind and snow.
Pemba Sherpa of the Seven Summit Treks agency in Kathmandu said a helicopter waited all day at base camp for weather to clear so it could fly to a higher camp. A Dutch climber's body was brought to Camp 2, while an Australian climber's body is at Camp 3.
Wangchu Sherpa of the Trekking Camp Nepal agency said it was searching for the two missing and trying to returning the body of another Indian climber.
