A San Jose climber reached the summit of Mount Shasta at dusk but disaster struck on the descent—after a terrifying 500-foot fall while glissading, he suffered severe injuries, lost his boots, and crawled through the night to reach safety. With no phone signal, his friends reported him missing the next day, but he was found Friday afternoon by another hiker. Rescue teams airlifted him to the hospital. Forest Service now urges climbers to plan for daylight and set a noon turnaround time—nature’s beauty demands respect and preparation.
