Just a reminder for all of us to be extremely careful when we are out there climbing. My prayers and condolences to her family. http://www.gazette.com/common/printer/view.php?db=colgazette&id=37738

I read about this on 14'ers.com Saturday evening. From members comments she was a wonderful quiet person, very experienced climber, and will be greatly missed. You never know if factors will go against you when climbing something as tricky as the Crestones. Very sad indeed.

Yeah, i was following that story--very sad, happens all too often on the Crestones. The name calling and bickering that resulted on 14ers.com is typical, it's what makes me really appreciate this site where everyone respects everyone else regardless of their ideology.
