Hilaree Nelson, 49, was skiing down from the 26,775 feet summit with her partner Jim Morrison when she fell off the mountain...

I recall being told that mountain climbing will seriously injure or kill you or it will seriously injure or kill someone else you know who is also into mountain climbing.

Now Hillary Clinton will claim she was named for her, instead of Sir Edmund Hillary.

Was she named after Edmund Hillary just like Hillary Clinton? Even though Edmund Hillary was unknown and obscure until he climbed Mount Everest 4 years after Hillary Clinton was born?

Plenty of backcountry skiing where you aren’t sucking for O2 and a fall doesn’t me buh bye forever. But if choosing the non-fun version is your thing, happy landings.

But visibility was good in improved weather conditions Tuesday while a helicopter was hovering over the mountain to see any signs of the missing climber...

A helicopter has some serious effects with the harmonic downbeat of its blades. Just having a helicopter in the area can cause small avalanches and keep snow banks unstable.

Back when Arlington TX hosted the Stupor Bowl, a news helicopter was in the area of the stadium and suddenly sheets of ice and snow cascaded off the top of JerryWorld. One halftime show worker was seriously injured by the snow falling from the stadium roof, and so was a news photographer.

Hope that she can be found alive.

How did he get inside the mountain?

Did he have a car that could cross into the 10th dimension like Buckaroo Banzai?
