Sunday, January 31, 2010

Doug McFalls over at the "Life On LeConte" Blog posted an excellent article about the 12 hikers who completed the 40th annual Dr. Charles Lindsley Memorial Hike this weekend.

Dr. Lindsley suffered a fatal accident on the Alum Cave Bluff Trail on an Ashville School hiking trip in 1971.

The posting includes a reprint of a letter from Lary Pless that tells the story of what happened that day. Please click here to read the article.
