Alex Bolotov Russian climber died this morning in Khumbu icefall at 5600 m (18,372 feet).
Alexey and his team mate Danis Urubko were to attempt their final attak on the Southwest Face of Everest via a new route in pure alpine style.
After leaving a Base Camp early in the morning he probably fell down during descent when his rope broke on the edge of a rock. Alexey fell 300 m and he died instantaneous in case of serious injuries.
R.I.P. Alexey
