The two tourists were: Lisa (19 years old, Dutch nationality) and Khuong Van Nguyen (25 years old, from Thanh Hoa ). At that time, both of them were unable to get down the mountain by themselves.

After moving to Dam Mon village, the rescue team continued to move by local fishing boats to Co Ong mountain.
