KATHMANDU: A British climber died on Mount Everest on Saturday.

British climber Robin Fisher, 44, reached the summit Saturday morning but collapsed when he had got just 150 meters back down the slope.

With the death, the total death toll this season on the world’s largest peak has reached 10.

The number has already eclipsed the total for 2018 as the summit became overcrowded with queuing climbers.
