A climber’s body was found on a hiking trail near Boulder, Colorado, on September 27, the AP reports. Angus Moloney, 22, was reportedly free-solo climbing the Fifth Pinnacle above the Gregory Canyon Trail, which is part of Boulder’s Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP), and fell the day before his body was discovered. |
