Bodies of two missing Czech climbers found in Swiss Alps

The bodies of two Czech mountaineers have been found on Täschhorn, a mountain in the Pennine Alps of Switzerland. They were last heard from last Friday, when they sheltered at a hut in Saas-Fee and told of their plans to climb the nearly 4,500-metre high mountain.

The two Czechs were reported missing on Tuesday and found dead at the foot of the Täschhorn on the same day, the tabloid Blesk reported. According to initial findings, they had fallen from a height of several hundred metres.
