Lichaam van 'Green Boots' mogelijk na 30 jaar van Mount Everest gehaald

Authorities in India are investigating the possibility of retrieving the remains of Dorje Morup from Mount Everest, nearly 30 years after he died during a summit attempt in 1996. The body, widely known as 'Green Boots' due to the distinctive footwear worn by the climber, has remained on the mountain for decades.

Over the years, the location of the remains has served as a grim navigational landmark for other climbers ascending the peak. The current effort marks a potential change in the long-standing status of the body on the mountain.
