This hiker chose to free solo an almost vertical wall and unfortunately paid the price.
This is incorrect. One because it’s not “almost vertical” (it’s a 3rd class scramble) and two because she was not technically free soloing - she wasn’t rock climbing and the protection in this case was the cables. I acknowledge these distinctions may not matter to you but they matter when talking about why these accidents happen.
