Re: Longs peak hiker missing
yikes, with how cold it's been and all the new snow it would be tough to spend the night out there if you weren't prepared.

Re: Longs peak hiker missing
Hopefully a few folks can provide some information to aid in the search.Park officials are asking that anyone in the Longs Peak area on Sunday to call (970) 586-1204.
It doesn't look good but we're still hoping for the best.

Re: Longs peak hiker missing
Wow, I just heard about this. We were flying into Denver yesterday (Monday) morning, just north of Longs. The winds were kicking so much snow up off the ridge that I took this picture... Really hoping for a good outcome.

Last I saw they didn't find any signs of him today.

Nothing new -- SAR crews are back out there today, temps are warmer but still windy.
