Synopsis
The Colorado fourteeners have been fonts of joy, icons of beauty, monuments of accomplishment, taskmasters of suffering, and doorways to visions and epiphanies. It is no mystery why hundreds of thousands have been drawn to their summits. But along with these intensely positive experiences is the possibility of the opposite extreme-to become stranded, severely injured, or even killed, in disturbingly easy ways.... A trusted guide disregards an escalating series of mistakes until his novice partner disappears without a trace. An experienced climber makes a single fatal misstep. The casual attitude of climbers who intentionally climb into danger with disastrous results. These victims were not unlike most climbers of Colorado's 14,000-foot peaks. The circumstances they found themselves in were not unusual. What caused them to suffer their misfortune? The answers are not as simple as they might appear. These are stories from the dark side of climbing, a place where anyone can become a victim regardless of experience or ability level. Colorado 14er Disasters: Victims of the Game reveals the disturbing psychology of decision making under the influence of casual attitudes, ambition, and physiological stress, and the surprising scarcity of rescue resources. These are valuable lessons for every 14er climber, and a must-read for all who venture into the mountains. Book jacket., Fourteener mania, the phenomena characterized by a seemingly obsessive drive to summit The List of all fifty-four of Colorado¿s 14,000-foot peaks, is an older tradition than many may realize. Along with intensely positive experiences in climbing is the possibility of the opposite extreme¿to become stranded, severely injured, or even killed, in disturbingly easy ways. This book explores this dark side of climbing. When an accident happens on a 14er, the victim is far from help and in an environment where rescue is difficult at best. The book is full of hair-raising stories of these disasters and resue attempts and also aids in avoiding such disasters.
