Rainier Climbers Rescue
A procession of vehicle accompanies an ambulance bearing the body of climbing ranger Nick Hall from Sunrise on Mount Rainier in Washington state, Thursday, July , 5 2012. Hall died in a fall during an operation last month to rescue a group of climbers who had fallen high on the Emmons Glacier (top center in this photo). Bad weather and dangerous snow conditions delayed the recovery of his body for more than a week. (AP Photo/The News Tribune, Peter Haley)
