My husband camps in the area and told me "it is very rough terrain".

I am sorry to hear that one man lost his life. Hopefully the other one will be found soon.

Very sad indeed. My thoughts are with the family and I hope his friend is found soon.

I am very famaliar with the Desolation Wilderness and the Eagle Lake area. I hike it often but always go prepared with essentials. Yes, the area is remote and some parts are difficult. The Sierras are beautiful yet unforgiving in a split second.

May we say no prayers for you when you become lost in the wilderness. This is what is worng with our country today. Punks that could care less about people until they need the same kind of help.

What hole did you crawl out of? Prayers are OLD? USELESS? It's idiots like you who make the world the mess it is today. Crawl back in your hole. GOD BLESS AMERICA and every law abiding citizen in it!

Maybe some day you'll put down the video game controller and find out.

What was the cause of death? Old age, attacked by a bear, killer rabbits? I'm curious. I've hiked up there and there are miles of trails you can practically stumble onto if you are only a mile in. I'm guessing they had no GPS device.
