Mt. Adams recovery mission

[sobo]

Although I was gallavanting about on Old Snowy this past weekend, I learned upon my return that there was a mission on the south side of Adams this past weekend. Two male climbers, 68 and 70 years old, were listed as overdue. Upon discovery in an area west of the Lunch Counter, one was found alive and well. The other was dead from what has been attributed as "natural causes". Body was retrieved and brought down via litter to trailhead. My condolences to his family.
