Colorado Climbers Remembered
The Sheridan Opera House in Telluride, Colorado, has planned a memorial service and celebration of the lives of Colorado mountaineers Charlie Fowler and Christine Boskoff on Jan. 15.

Fowler and Boskoff went missing while mountain climbing in southwestern China. Fowler's body was found last week at about 17,400 feet on Genyen Peak in Sichuan Province. Searchers who found Fowler speculated that he was killed in an avalanche. Boskoff is still missing and is presumed dead.

Monks at the Buddhist monastery at Khan Ding cremated Fowler's body and held a prayer service.

The search for Boskoff will resume as soon as weather permits.

Thanks to the GJSentinel.com for the information.
