The light from an MP3 player saved two lost tourists from a chilly night stuck out in the snowy Swiss mountains, rescue authorities said on Saturday. The two - a skier and snowboarder, both from France - had got lost late in the day on Friday outside marked runs near the resort of Savognin in southeast Switzerland, said Gery Baumann, spokesman for mountain rescue service Rega.
They were able to alert authorities using a mobile phone, but it then ran out of battery power, Baumann said.
