Nightmare on Mount Hood Ends in Tragic Crevasse Rescue
A chain reaction near Mount Hood's 11240 foot summit trapped climbers in an icy crevasse. Cleve Joiner watched his 14 year old son disappear as two climbers breached the crevasse ties. Three other climbers died and a rescue helicopter crashed, injuring all six crew. The final body was recovered Friday and the mountain was closed. About 50 climbers registered to summit, with multiple groups represented.
