Louise Bremer Kemp, 39, was treated for frostbite in Katmandu, Nepal, after an attempt to climb the world’s third highest mountain with her husband, physician Chris Chandler, 36, of Sausalito, who died during the attempt. In clarification of an earlier report, she said she and her Nepalese guide were forced to cover and leave Chandler’s body on Mt. Kangchenjunga when he died after becoming ill at about 26,000 feet. Chandler was one of the first two Americans to make an autumn ascent of Mt. Everest during the U.S. bicentennial expedition in 1976.
