The rescue of four climbers stuck on Mount Rainier in Washington state have been thwarted for three days by high winds and bad weather conditions, but efforts are expected to resume on Thursday.
The four climbers -- Yevgeniy Krasnitskiy, Ruslan Khasbulatov, Vasily Aushev and Kostya"Constantine" Toporov -- started climbing Mount Rainier in Washington on May 31, according to a park press notice, but high winds forced them to stop on the Liberty Ridge route. A helicopter located the climbers again on Tuesday, and they'd only been able to descend 250 feet, and a significant distance from the dropped supplies, to a"more sheltered, but still precarious, position," according to the release.
