Mr Fister said that given the time elapsed, there was a presumption that the
four were dead.
“Yes, given the length of time. It’s a difficult situation,” she
said noting that there was a “very real threat” to searchers
getting in the crevasse.
“Falling into a crevasse, people don’t last very long,” she added.
Rescuers had searched with helicopters and on foot since Friday.
They were Yoshiaki Kato, age 64; Masako Suda, age 50; Michiko Suzuki, age 56;
and Tamao Suzuki, age 63, all from Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, the spokeswoman
said.
