JACKSON, Wyo. (AP) -- The search for two climbers feared buried by an avalanche in Grand Teton National Park has resumed with the help of four dog teams.
Park officials say helicopters dropped off the dog teams and dozens of searchers Saturday morning.
Walker Pannell Kuhl and Gregory Seftick haven't been seen since April 16. Kuhl is from Salt Lake City, and Seftick is a Minnesota native but has been living in Columbia Falls, Mont. They were reported missing after Kuhl didn't come to work Monday.
The search is focusing on a canyon on the east side of the Tetons where an avalanche occurred.
Heavy snow in the past week has hampered the search, but crews were hoping to thoroughly search the avalanche path during better weather Saturday.
