Posted in Blogroll, Climber, Mt Hood, Rescue on December 20, 2006 | 2 Comments »
The unfortunate turn of events on Mt Hood for Kelly James is sad. And now the massive rescue effort has many calling for a winter month climbing ban and/or forcing location aware devices as you enter any state park. The banter has started…
