Kathmandu, Aug. 8 -- Tributes have continued to pour in for the Nepali climbers who died in the Broad Peak avalanche.

On Saturday morning, hundreds of people took part in the "Tribute Run 5K", paying tribute to the climbers who perished in the avalanche that struck the world's 12th-highest peak at the end of July.

Portraits of British-Nepali climber Nirmal Purja, Nima Sherpa, Nawang Thindu Sherpa, Pur Bahadur Gurung, Kili Pemba Sherpa and Gyalu Sherpa were kept facing the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bouddhanath Stupa, and paid the vigil.
