Body found during search for missing climbers

December 27, 2006 By WRN Contributor

Crews searching the Genyen mountain region in China have found a body, but officials still don't know if it's a missing Appleton native or her climbing partner. Still, Mountain Film Spokeswoman Arlene Burns says the do believe the body is either Christine Boskoff or Charlie Fowler. Crews will leave early Thursday morning to try and dig the body out of the snow it was buried in and make a positive identification.

Burns says it's a sad day for everyone at Mountain Film. A search team from the group has been taking part in the effort. Burns says they'd hope to find the pair alive, but the discovery of a body should provide at least some closure.

Boskoff and Fowler were reported missing after they failed to return to the US on December 4th.
