Very very sad to hear this. Rescue is not complete yet from what I understand. Please pray or whatever else you do.

You do SAR, don't you? I can see why these kind of conditions would put you on edge.

Yeah - it's partly that, and partly just the big hit to the community that always shows up here, or on NW Hikers or CC.com, or just in the network of friends. Always reveals all these connections.

I really hope the pager stays quiet this weekend though, for sure.

I know the B'ham/WWU/Baker community is super bummed about the Wallowas slide. RIP friend.
