Colorado—Rocky Mountain National Park

Publication Year: 1953.

Colorado—Rocky Mountain National Park: (2) On July 13, 1952 J. Henry Fortenback (45), received a laceration of the temple caused by a dislodged rock above the cables of Longs Peak. Clifford Doty (30) also received a bruised left knee and leg from the same cause, and in approximately the same location. Such climbing hazards were remedied considerably following these two accidents. Park rangers removed as many of the loose rocks as possible above the cables in order to prevent subsequent mishaps.
