Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion How do you want to be found?

Thanks for those appropriate quotes, Harvey. Having been around death in the mountains quite a bit more than I would have liked, I've never found it to be particularly romantic; that's a nice sentiment, but somewhat divorced from reality.

Something like Steve's feelings on the topic, I'd much rather die at home, surrounded by loving family and friends. And perhaps high on one of those mercy-giving pain-killers. I feel truly sorry for those who die alone, even if they were doing something they love.
