Mt. Hood Climbers Rescued Save Email Print

A | A | A

They spent the night on Oregon's Mount Hood after a fall, but three climbers are now safe and in good shape.

A rescue coordinator tells C-N-N that the three were found in "very good" condition. He says they're being "warmed-up" and fed.

The three climbers, who were well-equipped, fell from a ledge yesterday. They were found huddling with their dog, a black Labrador Retriever named Velvet.

They spent last night on the mountain amid ferocious winds and blowing snow.

According to the rescuer, the three aren't badly injured, and are able to walk out of the area themselves.
