Two Climbers Stuck on Solomon Island Peak | Sydney News

Two Kiwi climbers are stranded on Mount Popomanaseu, the Solomon Islands’ highest peak, after five days trapped in a ravine amid torrential rain and dangerous terrain. With no local guides to help descend due to tribal boundaries, rising rivers, and falling rocks, they’re surviving on rations but remain isolated as rescue efforts stall under relentless weather and treacherous conditions. Helicopters can’t land, ground teams can’t reach them, and New Zealand consular officials are coordinating support — while their families hold hope that patience and the clearing skies will bring them home safely.
