Thanks for the update. Very sad. my condolences to the family. |

There doesn't seem to be a follow up article identifying the victim. Did anyone else think about this again? |

The man was not climbing or free soloing. His identity has not been released but he has been identified and his family and friends know. |

I was honestly curious to know this man's story if anyone was privy to it. You perhaps aren't, and maybe the experience you had there that day was sufficiently disturbing to you that you would rather not know. That's your choice. If you have nothing more to add, then you can walk away from the conversation. |

Last article I saw was one saying no foul play, and no climbing gear was on body. Draw your own conclusions. |

Thanks for the link. |
