In the world climbing news forum there is an item indicating 10 deaths originally reported. This item from MountEverest.net corrects that.
Correct number of deaths on Cho Oyu.
08:20 a.m. EDT May 20, 2003
Yesterday it was reported by the GREIM; the Guardia Civil Mountain Rescue Patrol Everest expedition, the Spanish National Television and Barrabes News, that 10 climbers had perished on Cho Oyu.
After contacting the Tibetan Mountaineering Association and the Germany Embassy in China , ExplorersWeb can today confirm the correct number to be that one German climber died on Cho Oyu in an avalanche .
