Plastic and other debris are seen on the shores of Cap Haitian beach, Haiti.

Police in Peru say they have found the body of an American mountaineer who was buried by an avalanche 22 years ago as he tried to climb one of the highest peaks in the Andes. The body of William Stampfl was found last Friday near a camp 5,200 meters, or 17,060 feet, above sea level. The 58-year-old Stampfl was trying to climb the 6,768-meter Mount Huascaran with two friends when he was killed by the avalanche. The body of one of the friends was found shortly after the avalanche. The other is still missing.
