Just referencing this account from SuperTopo. Pretty sad. I wish the climbers who witnessed this the best in dealing with what they saw :-/
Death on the NW Face of Half Dome
====Edit August 26====
Hearing that others thought the OP was in poor taste, I guess I didn't communicate clearly enough my intention with it from the above comment. I was uncertain about the post and have more than mixed feelings about it, so I was pretty vague & basic in contextualizing the link.
So for the record:
My general intention was just to bring attention to the climbers' report that would be more informative than the initial news articles, since it seemed wrong to characterize this tragedy as another "tourist on the cables" as I saw some people doing, and provide a forum for incoming news (thanks to you who have added informative links).
My main intent was that since the climbers' experience was pretty horrifying and the SuperTopo community was actively offering support in PMs and comments to their post, I figured some SPers would want to reach out in support as those on the Taco are doing.
Both of these somewhat relate to my feelings & experience with Mt Shasta & Tom.
