Park Yough Seok, 43, Oh Hee Joon, 36, and Lee Hyeong Mo, 38, were picked up from an ice floe 17 miles (27 kilometers) southwest of Tin City on Alaska's west coast on Thursday, said McHugh Pierre, a spokesman for the Alaska Department of Military and Veterans Affairs.

There were no injuries. Officials did not know the hikers' hometowns.

The backpackers were trying to walk across the ice pack from Russia to Alaska but became stranded, he said.
