Not Without Peril
Great read about the many deaths on Mt Washington over the years. I think someone has died on Mt Washington every month of the year...
I was part of a team that saved a person at Tuckerman's many years ago... I watched someone lose it on the right headwall... slid into an open crevice... I called down to lunch rocks to a rescue patrol guy who came up with a rope and 8 of us were able to pull this wet guy back up 50 feet ... he had hypthermia and he was stripped down out of his wet clothes and put in a sleeping bag with another person to warm him up--- skin to skin contact... at the bottom of the crevice is a stream of ice melt water... several people have died falling and sliding into open crevices in the spring at Tuckermans
