“Lhotse’s foothills are wide-ranging and need a long time to perform their search, plus the fissures in the ice… If the victim slipped into them, it would complicate the search,” he said when interviewed on Bernama TV today. “So I’m not sure if our friend changed oxygen tanks or brought extra oxygen when he decided to descend to Camp 3 or Camp 2… this is something we don’t know. If there isn’t enough oxygen, one could experience acute mountain sickness, which can cause illusions,” he said.
