I'm not directly contesting her 7 summit achievement but I do wonder if she really can be given the 7th summit (Everest) if she did not safely return from the top? RedWolf 03:46, July 23, 2005 (UTC)

From what I understand, it is considered that one has achieved a goal in mountaineering if one summits. I am just an amateur fan, though. -Etoile 15:26, 28 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A cairn was erected to protect her body from scavenging birds? Are there scavenging birds on top of everest?Ticklemygrits 11:06, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Japanese script[edit]

Done. I confirmed her kanji name by this page.[1] It is a Japanese version of "Into Thin Air". --Nightshadow28 13:04, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

date of death[edit]

Acc. to "Into thin Air" (Jon Krakauer) and "Left for Dead" (Beck Weathers) Yasuko N lived the next day May 11, and maybe lived on May 12, still breathing but no further reaction. May 10 is not her date of death. --77.11.230.123 (talk) 17:46, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Body buried[edit]

Yasuko Namba is one of the very rare cases in which a body of a dead climber was brought down from the death zone to be buried. Her husband had initialized an expedition to pull her body from the icy south col down the 3.000ft high Lhotse face, through the Western Cwm and down through the dangerous Khumbu Icefall. It wass extremely "costy", endangered the life of several nepalese porters, and is a very special case as the nepalese sherpas normally avoid to have anything to do with dead on the mountain.. --77.11.230.195 (talk) 23:01, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
