We are glad to report that the two Swiss climbers forming an advance rescue team have made contact with Horia by radio. Xplorersweb reports "both Iñaki and Alexey are alive - Inaki is concious but unable to walk and remains in C4. The Russian, Alexey Bolotov whose state is unclear is reportedly on his way down to C3 earlier today." The Swiss rescuers who have been held up at C3 due to bad weather will try to reach C4 tomorrow.
