'Brilliant and talented' French climber Luce Douady, 16, dies following fall

Just saw this on CNN this morning.

pretty tragic. in case people don't read the article, the fall was walking to the crag, not during climbing. 

So very sad. 

I am familiar with this climbing area at Saint Pancrasse and it always made me pause how exposed the base of the crags were, all of them with hundreds of feet of drop-off.
