Here's some advice I can give you if you're going hiking in the Rockies in Colorado or anywhere else. There's been several people who have died hiking at places like Longs Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park and others.

I go into a few tragic stories of Lucas Macaj, Chad Pallansch, Russell Jacobs, Carlin Brightwell and Ryan Marcil. Most of way people die is from hypothermia, falls, avalanches or going a different way back from the peak.

I hope some of this info can help some people.

Some of the b roll footage I got from a page on Rocky Mountain National Parks page for educational purposes. https://www.nps.gov/romo/planyourvisit/longspeak.htm
