The snowflakes think mountains, wilderness and backcountry are safe amusement parks. In fact in San Bernardino Cty, they made people buy “Adventure passes” just to hike around the mountains/forest. No joke.

Oh man. Those wacky Cauliphonyans think the whole world is Disneyland. I’m going to have to dig out my coonskin cap.

Hiked in the Pocono Mountains. A beaver built a dam and flooded a few good acres, stymying our egress. Took us about 8 hours to find our way out. Thank God it was summertime or we may have been goners.

My time in Far East suburbs of LA/Orange counties was improved by the view of Mt Baldy.
Will pray for the girl, family and friends.

Left CA in 1992, Left Illinois in 2001, the gifts that keeps on giving.

Wow! Pretty cool story. When you’re out in nature, anything can happen. You always better be prepared. Thanks for sharing.

the trail traverses a knife edge (probably less so in reality than memory)

Put a little ice on that ridge and it's a long slide down, as a few people have found out the hard way.

Daily Mail describes her as a 56-year-old mother of four. No mention of a husband.

Like most modern women, she was apparently obsessed with collecting Likes for her social media.
