Fun flood story

It seems more & more rare for climbers to get good press these days. Here is a fun story of one of the most seasoned alpine rescuers in the country (& the man who has climbed Long's Peak over 400 times!) making a difference for a flood victim & his cold-blooded friends. The Post got their facts right & actually gave a nod to climbers having value for once.

Enjoy.

Good to hear about climbers coming out of their shell to help.

Tim, I guess climbing with a turtle for a partner was slow going. Nice story. You guys did good.
