Japan woman lost in Himalayas survived on bambooKATHMANDU (AFP) - A Japanese woman who was missing for 12 days in the Himalayan mountains of Nepal told on Friday how she survived by eating bamboo shoots and drinking water.
Makiko Iwafuchi, 49, left her hotel on May 25 to trek to a nearby lake in Gosaikunda, a religious site for Hindus located at an altitude of 4,380 metres (14,370 feet).
But she lost her way in a forest and was only saved when a group of pilgrims finally found her by accident.Rest of the story here: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110610/wl_asia_afp/nepaljapantourismmountaineering
