Queensbury, a town in Warren County, New York, has been in the news due to a fatal mountain-climbing anchor failure in Colorado and a high-profile homicide trial update in Massachusetts.
Two Colorado Mountain College students have died after an anchor failure during a planned climb near Ice Mountain. Autopsies indicate instant death from multiple blunt force injuries; authorities say a heavy snowstorm was not a direct factor. The men were found in a snow-filled basin in Chaffee County after their equipment failed.
