MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. (AP) -- The bodies of two Michigan sisters have been found at the bottom of a steep hill on Mackinac Island.
Mackinac Island police report Monday that 59-year-old island resident Karen Schwarck and 57-year-old Edith Bonno of Canton Township in Wayne County were snowmobiling Sunday when they apparently rode over the edge of the West Bluff.
The women were out on a photography excursion. Police say in a release that Schwarck's husband reported them missing at 10:15 p.m. Sunday.
Their bodies were found after 2 a.m. Monday.
Police say alcohol was not a factor in their deaths.
