Condolences to the families. 

RIP Ryan Johnson and Marc-Andre.  Condolences to Marc's family and to his friend here Jason Kruk.  Losing two of your best friends in six months (Hayden Kennedy and Marc-Andre) has to be incredibly tough.

Searchers found their ropes in a crevasse midway down the forth tower, and anchors. Currently unsafe to begin recovery efforts.

Even without any narration, this video Marc-Andre's dad posted to Facebook offers some insight into what might have happened.
