Three mountain climbers from the United States and Canada are missing after they did not return from their planned summit of New Zealand’s tallest mountain, Aoraki, officials said Tuesday. The Canadian national is not being named by New Zealand Police until his family is notified. The search for them began Monday after they failed to show up for their morning flight out, police said. They said they were working with the U.S. and Canadian embassies to inform and support the families of the three men. Aoraki, part of the Southern Alps mountain range that runs the length of New Zealand’s South Island, is a popular destination for advanced climbers but has challenging terrain.
