At least two bodies of missing mountain workers were recovered from the avalanche site late this afternoon as the search and rescue team intensified SAR activities on Himlung Himal.
The chances of survival for those missing in the Himlung Himal avalanche are substantially high as fresh snow swept through tents at the base camp, expedition officials said.
Major trekking routes in the Annapurna Conservation Area remain closed or are awaiting confirmation of safe access following recent adverse weather, according to the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) of the National Trust for Nature Conservation.
