Weather hampers a search for 3 American and Canadian climbers missing on New Zealand’s highest peak
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — New Zealand authorities have “grave concerns” for three mountain climbers from the U.S. and Canada who are missing after a planned ascent of the country’s highest peak, Aoraki.
The police said Thursday that a search for the men could not resume as planned due to harsh weather conditions that have stalled search efforts since late Monday.
