MT. HOOD

Being a person of great compassion, I am hopeful for the rescue of those guys who went off onto a snowy mountain in the winter. I was in a similar situation as their families, once, when my kid got himself snowed into a shack in the deep forest in the U.P. (One can go batty worrying about it.)

But, perhaps the news channels are over-covering the story? Just a modest suggestion. One report in a hour is enough. Two is top notch. More than that makes your ambulance chasing disgusting.

Why wouldn't carrying some sort of signalling device and spare batteries be standard procedure for climbers ??
Is this too simple a concept ???
