Great reply. Thank you for reminding all of us that lives were lost on
that peak.

Let me try and explain what Chuck was driving at. There has been a
tradition for those crews who climbed to the top of Trail Peak to get a
crew picture of everyone together peeing off the wing of an airplane at
10,000 feet. However, we should remember that young men, not much older
than our scouts, died at this spot defending their country. One of
those young men was an Eagle Scout. So the next time you head up to
Trail Peak, take time and remember their sacrifice and save your pee for
another spot. For more information about the crew and the crash, go to
