SEATTLE (AP) — Two snowboarders who spent two nights stranded on Mount Rainier were well enough to snowshoe out Tuesday after rescuers had to “swim” through snow that was chest-deep in spots to reach them, national park officials said.

Derek Tyndall and Thomas Dale didn’t appear to have frostbite or other injuries when rescuers reached them around 11 a.m., park spokeswoman Lee Snook said.
