Two Sherpa guides die while climbing Everest in three days

A Sherpa died while guiding a group of climbers on an Everest expedition on Saturday.

Namgyal Tshering Sherpa, 28, who had scaled the world's tallest peak twice fell into a crevasse and died, according to the Associated Press.

He is the second guide to die while climbing Everest in this year's spring climbing season. Climbers generally try to scale Everest in May.

Last Wednesday, experienced climber Karsang Namgyal died due to altitude sickness. nepalnews.com
