Their families reported to police after all of them were out of contact Monday. They were found by climbers from Fuzhou and Putian who took part in the rescue, he said.

"We lost our way in the mountains and a sudden rainstorm made it difficult for us to get out," said one of the climbers on condition of anonymity.

Ten climbers were resting at Xitai Village Forest Protection Station at Qingkou Town when a Xinhua reporter arrived at about 7 pm. The other two climbers were expected to arrive at the station soon, the spokesman said.

The 12 climbers were in good condition and would return home with relatives who were coming to collect them after police took statements, he said.

The police bureau in Fuzhou sent 100 police officers and 100 firefighters Monday morning to search for the missing.
