Limited details.

Hopefully the injured recover and the passed rest easy.

As always be careful out there and not just on Colorado mountains.

Thank goodness for rescue teams! Incredible.

Last year about this same time there was a death of a Minnesota man on Granite Peak. It would be a much more deadly mountain if it was more popular like a CO 14er.

Yes, obviously extremely sad incidents.

I cannot speak to the snow bridge incident, but second incident took the life of an extremely well-known and competent East Idaho climber. Apparently their rappel anchor (a very large boulder as I understand), broke loose taking Kevin's life. Kevin was with his brothers and father at the time of the accident.

Kevin was considered a pioneer of climbing in the Lost River Range:
