"Because they are there."

the article is wrong. The fall doesn’t kill... it’s the sudden stop.

That mountain is all loose rock, suicidal. Locally the mountain is known as flipping the bird, Jack.

I’ve been thinking since mt. Hood is so dry are the mazamas looking for any lost climbers from years past. Or are the lost supposed to be left to rest? If it was my family I’d want them found.

It wasn’t the fall that killed him, it was the sudden stop.

Climbing a volcano in the summer time is always dangerous.
Really its just a big pile of broken up rock.
Much safer in the winter when everything freezes together.

One-fingered Jack probably would have led to the same end.

At least he wasn't climbing Naughty Rock.
