> Hi All
> Just a heads up for the ice climbing community. There was a near miss on Lady
> killer the yesterday. I heard it 2nd hand but some details are on the CAA
> incident site. No shovels, probes or transceivers on site.
> 3 climbers involved sounds like 2 burials but all recovered and OK.
> The climb is mostly south facing a great place to climb when it is cold but
> not when the temps are rising and there is lots of snow!! Like yesterday.
> This is not going to help our access issues in the canyon as it closed the
> Highway for a couple of hours.
> I am thankful though that no one was seriously injured. The sun is higher now
> heads up out there.
> Cheers
