    Mt. Greylock

    Sawyer River Rd will be closed to vehicles for 2024 until further notice

    Fatality on Mt. Guyot

    These are the opening paragraphs of an AMC Appalachia article they wrote about Kate Matrosova. It's worth the read, even if it doesn't include the entire article. Too Cold: : The Death of Kate Matrosova

    Good question, But if nobody's been charged in 45 years, chances are it won't happen soon. Does VT have more of a problem than other NE states, including NY?
