HASARA INAYOHUSU MOYO kwenye Mlima Whitney
- The bodies of Andrew Niziol and Patty Bolan, who vanished while hiking California’s tallest peak, have been identified. The pair set out on a journey across California and were reported overdue during their descent from Mount Whitney.
Search efforts escalated when they didn’t return to their campsite at Upper Boy Scout Lake. Rescue teams utilized helicopters and ground units in an extensive search operation.
Five days later, rescuers discovered the bodies on the mountain’s north face at 13,200 feet. It seems they fell while trying to ski or snowboard back to their campsite.
This tragic event highlights the dangers of high-altitude hiking and emphasizes the necessity for thorough preparation in such demanding conditions.
