Another climbing party saw the pair fall and cared for the surviving climber until help arrived the next morning.
One person is dead and another is seriously injured after the pair fell about 1,000 feet while climbing a mountain in Alaska . The unnamed climbers were scaling Mt. Johnson, an 8,400-foot peak in Denali National Park, the National Park Service said in a news release. The climbers were ascending a part of the mountain known as 'The Escalator,' which is on the mountain's southeast face.
' The second group dug a snow cave and attended to that climber's injuries throughout the night until Denali National Park's high-altitude rescue helicopter pilot and two mountaineering rangers were launched Friday morning. A rescue operation ensued, with a ranger taken to the climbers. The ranger and injured climber were brought to a flat glacier staging area and loaded onto the helicopter. The injured climber was transferred to an air ambulance and taken for further care.
