Wilderness Ain't All Wild Flowers

This recent news story reminds me of the occasional tragedy that happened on the front range. A small child wanders off into the wilderness and is lost to humanity (including, most tragically, the child's parents). In Colorado, the culprit was usually a mountain lion. In Oregon - I don't know.

Anyway, my sympathy goes out to the distraught mother, father, siblings, and extended family. To have your kin extinguished by the wilderness seems a particularly cruel and random fate.

..So sad. ...So sad.
