3 climbers missing on mt hood
December 13th, 2006 by moose
As much as I love snowboarding I never take for granted the power of the mountain and its weather. It seems that three climbers were attempting the north face of Mt Hood last weekend and were traveling light to make a quick ascent and descent but bad weather set in. The blog community is tracking the news as at least one member, Jerry Cooke, known as Fuggedaboutdit, posts regularly to online mountain climbing forums.
