Bodies found after Peru avalanche

A rescue team scours an Andean mountainside in search of a Spanish mountaineer and his Peruvian guide who were buried in an avalanche last weekend.

A team of more than a dozen people eventually found the bodies of 42-year-old Spanish national Marco Perez and his unidentified guide.

Perez's wife, Ana Maria Lopez, was able to lead the team to the exact location as she was with her husband when the avalanche took place.

Peru's National Association of Professional High Mountain Guides later said the bodies were found at an altitude of about 5,600 meters.
