According to EverestNews.com four French climbers are missing on Paldor in Nepal. They were last seen on October 13th, but missed a recent meeting with friends, which has led to a search by air, while a ground search is still in the organizational stages. I'll post more as it becomes available.
Paldor is a 5928 meter peak in the central Nepal region of the Himalayas. It was first climbed in 1949, and is considered a nice challenging climb, with a variety of routes. The peak is fairly isolated, and is not visited often by climbers, but is said to be an excellent place for trekkers.
