Man dies in blizzard on Mt Rainier day hike

A blizzard trapped 3 climbers on the mountain Tuesday, two men and a woman in their 30s.   Reports are that they were experienced hikers/climbers out for a day hike when poor conditions trapped them on the Muir snowfield.  One man, the woman’s husband, did not make it.  The other two are in stable condition and being tended to at Muir Camp (10,000 feet) while awaiting clear weather for a rescue.

Scary stuff.
