Climber hit by Lightning - Pierces Pass 4-Jan-2011 At 5:35:31 PM Tex

Quick bit of info. Police Rescue and the Ambo's in the Blue Mtns do carry the climbing guide book in their vehicles. They are often used and were used on this occasion. Also, there are a number of members of emergency services in the Bluies, including Police Rescue that are experienced recreational climbers. RE the use of PLB's whilst climbing - As has been said, it's a personal choice. But remember, they are small, light and free to borrow in the Blue Mtns. Not much of an inconvenience for something that could potentially save your life or assist in your rescue should something go wrong on a remote climb or walk in/out. Lastly, don't believe everything you read/hear in the media, it's not always accurate.
