Siskiyou County Sheriff’s OfficeA climbing guide died after tumbling more than 1,000 feet down a California mountain amid dangerously icy conditions from a late winter storm, authorities said Tuesday.on Monday morning, the Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
In two separate incidents at 12:31 and 4 p.m., two other climbers also tumbled roughly 1,000 feet down the mountain. Both were airlifted to a local hospital, where their conditions weren’t immediately available. Webster’s experience level wasn’t immediately clear. It also wasn’t clear what climbing outfit she was affiliated with.Tim Keating, who’s summited Mt. Shasta 450 times and founded a mountain guide company in 1981, said that Webster’s group was likely following the standard route on a peak popular with climbers — a two to three day trip that begins at just under 7,000 feet and eventually reaches the summit, at 14,179 feet.
