INCESSANT rain and slippery terrain are making the task of retrieving the remains of those who died in the Cessna plane crash in Isabela last January difficult.

In a statement, the Isabela Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO) said the 39-member retrieval team reached the crash site at around 8 a.m. Saturday
