We hiked Flatiron in Feb.2009. It was a difficult
hike. We have alot of Grand Canyon hiking
experience. I am thankful that your wife survived
her ordeal ok. Speaking from experience preparation
is essential for any hike, and has you know now
a difficult hike such as Flatiron it is a must.
There was snow at the top of Flatiron this past
Feb too. It was a relentlessly steep hike. Reminded
us of Camelback Mountain and Picacho Peak near
Tucson. Hiking is great fun but do the reseach ahead
of time and plan the trip. Signal mirrors, whistles,
plenty of food and water,water treatment tablets,
and letting someone know the length of trip and
where you will be are also essential. Happy
Hiking!

What a frightening experience. I’m glad your wife is OK. These moments, I’m guessing, let you know how precious your wife is and how precious life is in general I hope.

@Jarkko Laine:

Haven’t seen you for a while. I have been busy working on my project, enjoy family time and suffer from the hassle dealing with insurance company. You may already know that I killed a cow recently. Anyway, have a great new year.

Sorry to hear that you had to go through something this dramatic! But it’s great that you got your wife back, and everything is fine now.

Events like this sure makes you appreciate life and the things we take for granted…

[...] We are driving on the highway 71 between Austin and Houston in Texas. We did not expect to meet with the cows on highway, since there is no warning and no sign whatsoever. We were driving south in the very cold and dark night on December 21st, 2008. We were under the speed limit of 65 miles per hour. It was really dark and there are not many cars on the highway. We saw bunch cows blocking the two lanes highway, it was already too late. That is the most scary moment in our life other than my wife’s life and death experience. [...]

OMG Chris – when I read the first sentence, my heart was in my mouth. I thought you meant your wife had died.

What a horrible experience for you though – I’m glad she’s ok.

Glad to hear that she came out of it ok. God is good. Anytime you go away from civilization, even if it’s only for a “day” trip it is always wise to prepare for the worst.

I am very happy to hear that, despite disaster, you and your wife are alright thanks to the efforts of yourself, your friends and of fellow hikers. Very happy.

It’s unfortunate, but we never seem to hear enough about pure, old fashioned good will in the world, whether it’s through the MSM or the internet. Where did the Mr. Rogers and the Walter Cronkites of the world go? At least, even without the examples of such men in the media, people continue to perform minor miracles in the world.

I hope that continues. Best of luck to you, Terence, and your wife for whatever else you’re doing in the future.
