“We've been doing this for 20 to 25 years and climbers know there are many other alternatives. We've modified the closures over the years to accommodate the birds. They may use one nest one year and another nest the next year, but it's all in the same territory.”

William Arthur Ward

“We cannot say anything about the condition of the climbers missing in the avalanche. We are waiting for details.”
