ST-HENRI-DE-TAILLON, QUE.—The Quebec coroner’s office has identified the two French snowmobilers whose bodies were pulled from the waters of Lac-Saint-Jean on Sunday. Julien Benoit, 34, and Yan Thierry, 24, were two of the eight French tourists who were travelling with a guide when their snowmobiles broke through the ice last Tuesday. Quebec provincial search-and-rescue teams are still looking for the final two tourists who remain unaccounted for six days after the accident. The 42-year-old guide, Benoit L’Esperance of Montreal, died in hospital early Wednesday, and the body of 58-year-old French citizen Gilles Claude was found Friday.
