Bodies of 3 climbers retrieved from Mount Rainier

MOUNT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK, Wash. (AP) — The National Park Service says the bodies of three climbers have been retrieved from a glacier on Mount Rainier in the same area where six went missing in May. A crew on a training flight this month spotted the bodies in an avalanche debris field after they were exposed by melting snow. Working with park rangers, Northwest Helicopters used a remote-controlled grabbing device mounted from a 100-foot long line to lift the bodies off the Carbon Glacier.
