NYT Homage to Doug Coombs

I'm surprised, but the NYT decided to do a front page (at least on their web site) article on Doug Coombs. They have some photos I'd not seen before, including this picture taken from the very day of that ill fated run. (I wonder if this is the chute that took their lives)


Anyways you can read the rest of the article here. It's pretty good, and worth the click over. That must have been a terrible chute to go down afterwards by the remaining survivor, if he did not hike back up.

UPDATE JUNE 15: Memorial Service Details
