Milt wore a harness but according to his son and friends preferred to 
free climb and was apparently doing so when he fell. Whatever may have 
caused him to lose his grip is, to the best of my understanding, not 
fully known at this point.

Remember the discussion we had on this several months ago??  Now you 
have an example.

Dave, AB7E
