Hood accident lawsuit

[olyclimber]

We can’t seem to provide medical care without taking people’s homes in this country.  It’s probably early to be talking about complete coverage professional mountain rescue services.

So true, @olyclimber, so true....  Until then @glassgowkiss, you better not get hurt in the hills.  Us crapheads will be manhandling your ass into a litter!

if hurt on a public thoroughfare or on land owned/operated on by a business you have a reasonable expectation of rescue services being provided in a timely fashion - if hurt in a wilderness area, any assistance rendered, useful or not, is pure charity

not all of us can die smart...

People die on Hood EVERY year. People die climbing around the world every year. Every year a couple top level climbers, ski mountaineers, back country bad ass' die. We all know it's a possibility to make a mistake or have luck run out. We weigh the risk and reward and venture out, or not, knowing that the cost of failure can be tragically high. There is zero reason for this lawsuit but grief turned to greed.
