Alan Arnette posted a report on his site, where the sad news was confirmed, that Frank Ziebarth, a German climber, who was living in Calgary, Canada, was found dead at the bottom of the Third Step after he summited Everest from Tibet without the use of additional oxygen.

Also Veslav Chrzaszcz from the Czech Republic died on the North side of Everest by a heart attack recently!

Heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of the two mountaineers!
