Saturday at JTNP Tina Fiori suffered a fatal fall. Tina was on many hikes with us and became friends with a large following.Tina became
a very active climber and adventurer in the Sierra and Southern California .
Tina was always a positive joyful powerful person , I think back to the early years when she first started climbing and how she would be so happy that she got to the top of a pitch/mountain that she had wanted to do .

A great loss from our family .

This is very sad news. Condolences to her Family and Friends.

Thanks for the special words Doug. Tina was part of our WPSMB Family and our Team Hypoxia Family. She was surrounded by loved ones up to her last breath and the world has lost a great, great person. I cannot begin to tell you how much I will miss her.

Yesterday (April 16) Shin and friends hiked to the top of Mt Baldy. Shin dedicated his 700th Mt Baldy summit to the memory of our WPSMB fiend Tina.

See Shin's photos of the summit for Tina in his April 16 entry in the Conditions on Baldy thread on this website.
