"The paraglider and another man were launching from the 9700 ft peak using speed wings when the man crashed in a rocky chute approximately 500 ft below the summit."

A year ago we spoke with a great, inspirational lady by the name of Doris Ehli.

Doris passed away this past weekend, surrounded by family.
