A second day of rescue efforts in Nepal ended Monday with three people still missing after an avalanche that killed at least eight people on the mountain of Manaslu.

Rescue workers who had been at the mountain Monday said that many of the mountaineers initially reported missing had been accounted for. But hopes were quickly fading of finding the three missing.
