Sad To Hear
A hiker died in Colorado.
ALAMOSA — On Sunday the Saguache County Sheriff’s Office in cooperation with other local and regional agencies recovered the body of a Texas man who is believed to have fallen some 1700 feet to his death sometime Friday or Saturday.

Saguache County Sheriff’s Office Investigator Mark Werts said Monday Custer County Search and Rescue received a call from the man’s hiking partner Saturday afternoon reporting he had become separated from the man and had not seen him since Friday afternoon. The Dallas, Texas men had been hiking in the Needles area.

My condolences to his friends and family.
