Talk:Günter Dyhrenfurth

Some curious detail which I am researching..

The American mountaineer Francis Farmer was lost while climbing the Kangchenjunga in 1929. Prof. Dr. Gunther Oskar Dyhrenfurth's Swiss Himalaya-expedition of 1930 went to look for him at the Abbey of Detsenroba. Many letters had been written by the mountaineer's mother ,mrs. farmer. She believed that her son was still alive and kept prison in the Abbey in the Yalung valley. And that he was waiting to be freed so he would return safe to his homeland.
