Climber rescued in Rocky Mountain National Park - Houston Chronicle

ESTES PARK, Colo. (AP) — A 29-year-old man has been rescued after he fell while climbing Longs Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park.

Park rangers say they were unable to send a helicopter to transport the man for more than three hours because of weather conditions.

Park officials did not identify the climber, who was flown to a Denver hospital for treatment.

He never lost consciousness and his injuries were not life-threatening.
