A heartbreaking incident occurred on the Mount Bismo climbing route, resulting in the loss of two teenagers' lives. The two reportedly fell into a ravine while hiking towards the summit.
An evacuation team was immediately deployed to the scene shortly after receiving reports of the victims' fall. The steep terrain and weather conditions around the mountainous area were reportedly major challenges for the rescue team during the search and recovery process.
To date, authorities are still investigating the exact chronology of the accident. The public and hikers are urged to always prioritize safety and adhere to hiking operational procedures when exploring high-risk trails.
