Im not sure if anyone else noticed this, but i was thinking of creating a short story based upon this interesting news article i found. As stories with integration of fact makes them more lucid.

"CHANDIGARH, India (Reuters) - The frozen bodies of four foreign tourists have resurfaced in a Himalayan glacier after more than two decades, Indian officials said on Monday, but mystery shrouds their identities and origins."

Can anyone say Mountains of Madness?

Were they frozen perhaps for travelling too far, and finding out too much? Are they really human? They were in the most un-visited area of the Himalayas, for a fuller story just visit the link.

Very good idea for a short story. I look forward to reading it. Like Lovecraft, I tend to use stories from the press whenever possible to give me inspiration.
