WEST GLACIER, Mont. (AP) — A search crew in Glacier National Park looking for two missing Montana climbers spotted their bodies on Monday from the air, park officials said in a statement.
The men, both 67, were reported overdue Sunday from their planned climb of Dusty Star Mountain in the park’s center. They set out for the climb on Thursday and had planned to hike out on Friday.
Park rangers found their vehicle at a trailhead Sunday and search crews first took to the air later that day, park officials said.
Authorities were making a plan to recover the men’s bodies and their belongings, the park statement said. Their identities were not immediately disclosed.
