Rescue efforts in Nepal wind down
Description
More bodies arrive in Katmandu.
Yet more victims of a storm that killed at least 40 people in Nepal.
Nearly 600 people have been rescued
The incident was Nepal's second major mountain disaster this year, after 16 guides died in an avalanche in April on Mount Everest.
Survivors say many perished trying to descend in freezing whiteout conditions.
Nevertheless Nepal's trekking industry, is back open for business.
(SOUNDBITE) (English) SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF THE TREKKING AGENCIES ASSOCIATION OF NEPAL, KESHAV PANDEY SAYING:
"I don't think people will really stop trekking or people will say, 'Ok, well I don't go any more,' because I still have already, we are issuing already permits, people wanted to go around Annapurna base camp or any other trekking. They are smoothly going everyday."
Every year, thousands of tourists set out on treks in Nepal.
Some are not deterred by the latest tragedy.
