Crampon in the Parking Lot: Four Dead, One Returns Alive

A steel twelve-point crampon stamped "19200" was found leaning against a mud-caked Subaru in a trailhead parking lot at 4:53 a.m. on November 19, 2011 - four miles and roughly 200 feet down from where it last belonged on Kael's Tooth. How did one piece of equipment travel through ice, stone and gravity to land in a car cupholder while four climbers lay dead above?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events on Kael's Tooth between November 12 and November 19, 2011, following a five-person summit team, the fixed-line system on the Northeast Col traverse, and the one decision that set the course for the descent. What moment on the rope line - recorded in radios and a field notebook - turned a high-altitude summit into a tragedy?
Date: November 17-19, 2011
Location: Kael's Tooth, Caldwell Range
Elevation: approximately 19,400 feet
Person: Heather Padgett (age 38)
Event: Summit and fatal descent of five-person team
- A fourteen-year-old, Tracy O'Connor, found the crampon at 4:53 a.m. on November 19, 2011, and waited about forty minutes before flagging down a deputy.
- The crampon was a twelve-point steel mountaineering device stamped "19200" in silver paint.
- The summit team reached Kael's Tooth summit at 2:46 p.m, on November 17, 2011, already past their turnaround window.
- Pete Hadley noted "spongy" midpoint anchor pickets in his orange notebook on November 12 and reported it by radio to guide John Hansen; the pickets were not reset before the summit push.
- Heather Padgett, age 38, ran four miles every morning and was considered the strongest technical climber on the team.
