More rangers have arrived at Mount Rainier National Park to help with the recovery of the body of climbing ranger Nick Hall, who fell to his death during a rescue operation Thursday near the summit.

Spokeswoman Jacqueline Ashwell said three rangers from Alaska’s Denali National Park are relieving rangers Monday at Camp Schurman, at about the 9,500-foot-level, where they have been waiting for a chance to retrieve the body of Nick Hall. Two rangers from parks in Colorado also have come to the park to help with the normal operation of the park.
