Two people died and six others were still missing during a weekend climbing activity in Mount Lawu, Central Java.
The dead were identified as 23-year-old Jumain from Demak, Central Java, and 18-year-old Muji Rachman from Blora, Central Java.
Search and rescue team coordinator Aji Pratama Heru said Monday his team was still searching for the missing climbers who are mostly from Central Java such as Nur Achmad from Kudus, Fauji (Cilacap), Puji (Pati), Arif (Blora), and Muchlis (Bojonegoro), Antara news agency reported.
One missing person, known as Eko Supriyanto, was from Jambi, Heru added.
The victims were among 125 Blora's Condromowo Association members, who climbed Mount Lawu on Saturday morning in sunny weather. However, the rain poured the mountain on the afternoon and only stopped on Sunday.
