The remains of a Swiss couple who disappeared while walking to feed their cattle are believed to have been recovered from a retreating glacier, local media reported Tuesday. "They were perfectly preserved in the glacier and their belongings were intact." Tschannen told another Swiss paper, the Tribune de Geneve, that he believed the couple fell into a crevasse and were "perfectly preserved" by the Tsanfleuron glacier at an altitude of 8,580 feet. The Dumoulins had seven children, who were separated and placed with relatives or in foster homes after their parents' disappearance. Swiss officials say that 280 people have been reported missing in the Alps or rivers of Valais since 1925.
