Nabin Trital, managing director of Expedition Himalaya, told AFP. <\/p>\n<p>She was climbing with a three-member team that included her partner, David Ashley, and two Nepali guides.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/12\/8e4463b4-3344-417b-827d-50d373bec98e\/thumbnail\/620x413\/c8df2a594ce0fe1f8825cdb62f2c0730\/gettyimages-1453968213.jpg#\" alt=\"Makalu peak in the Himalayas in Nepal \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/12\/8e4463b4-3344-417b-827d-50d373bec98e\/thumbnail\/620x413\/c8df2a594ce0fe1f8825cdb62f2c0730\/gettyimages-1453968213.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/12\/8e4463b4-3344-417b-827d-50d373bec98e\/thumbnail\/1240x826\/6906def7e980cf8a66f8d0cc0a8f9cfd\/gettyimages-1453968213.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Nepal&#8217;s Mount Makalu as seen on a sunny winter day from the Kongma La pass in the Himalayas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Didier Marti \/ @ Didier Marti \/ Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Ashley said he was &#8220;heartbroken&#8221;
