Update on missing Mt. Hood hikers (UPDATE: TERRY JAMES IDENTIFIED)
HOOD RIVER, Ore. – Teams looking for three missing climbers on Mount Hood found a body after searching a second snow cave Sunday, an official said.
The dead climber had not yet been identified, said Pete Hughes, a spokesman for the Hood River County Sheriff’s Office. The body was believed to be one of the three missing climbers, authorities said.
The body was found in a snow cave — but not the one that was first searched earlier Sunday, he said.
“We have confirmed one fatality” said Capt. Michael Braibish of the Oregon National Guard. “We do not have the identity of that individual at this time. To say anything more at this point would be speculation.”
Earlier this week I blogged about the missing hikers and noted that ST reader Melissa in Texas had posted a request for prayers – one of the hikers, Kelly James, is her husband’s cousin. Please continue to keep the hikers – and their families – in your thoughts and prayers.
Mon AM Update: The body of the hiker found has been identified as Terry James.

I appreciate everyone’s thoughts and prayers.
The news is not good.
There has been no official notification yet, but the family is fairly certain that it was Kelly that was found.
The other two may still be out there, alive.
I continue to hope and pray that they are.
Again, thank you.
I would like to send a hug to all those out there risking their lives to find our loved ones.
Thank you could never be enough.
Hi I am so sorry to hear about this… I pray for them to be found alive and well. I a hiker myself here in ontario canada.. have been in many storms….. just one ? for the police can they use heat seaking equipment .. to help find them in the snow.. Please be strong and god is with you..
i am a sherpa (an ethnic group living in the nepal himalaya) and i want to pray for the safe return of the two missin climbers and being a bhuddhist, i want to chant our mantra for the departed soul of the kelly james….
“om mani padme hung rhi”….and sympathy to the family..
and i think all the people in the search party on the mount hood are brave and i appreciate all the works that has been done and is goin to be done by the government,organisations and individuals…
just wanted to aknowledge one thing that there are some sherpas from nepal himalaya livin in the usa who have tremendous experiences of mountains and if the search teams could include some of the sherpas that would be helpful… its just an idea which came from my simple mind… and if anyone could find where these sherpas live and request them to help resqueing the missing ones they would probably be more than happy to do so…
just an idea from well wisher from nepal himalaya
Amen George & Pasang!!! I do pray that they can find these men. I forever hope to hear the stories of miracles that come from these very horrible situations. God Bless the searchers also, and may they remain strong while the need is so great. – Lorica
