May 3, 2021 - recreating Fatality at Eldridge Glacier

Eldridge Glacier, Denali National Park and Preserve,

Mason Stansfield, 28 of Ouray, Colorado died when he fell into a crevasse while skinning up the glacier off rope with a woman. She could not see or hear from Mason after he disappeared. Rangers recovered his body about 100ft down in the crevasse. Mason was a mountain guide who was on a personal adventure. Never a bad idea to probe and rope up when crossing snow covered glaciers.
