Lambone Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 Sounds like he slipped while unroped on easier terrain. Too many tragedies this fall... what can you say. Quote
Beck Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 I was up at Snoq pass yesterday, the not necessarily accurate beta I got was he slipped traversing on smooth slap going underneath middle peak towards north peak, snow slush on slab a contributing factor. Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 I looked at king5. Bummer. Does anyone know where there might be more details on the web? Quote

I'm glad they didn't include photos. Quote
Hollywood Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 Underneath middle and north? Is that on the east side of middle? I think I remember a smooth slab there but I'm not sure. Any more info? Quote
EV Posted October 17, 2001 Posted October 17, 2001 Kevin Colburn is the name of the person who died on Guye Peak. I guess he was a school board member down there. I got the news from tacomanews.com [This message has been edited by EV (edited 10-17-2001).] Quote
