Ricardo F.G. 32 years old, experienced mountaineer from Potes (Cantabria) Where he made his passion a way of life, he plunged into the void while trying to complete Monte Perdido with two climbing companions who notified the GREIM at 1:30 p.m. yesterday, Wednesday. The three mountaineers were trying to cross the “La Escupidara” canal when Ricardo F.G. had the fatal accident. Upon the arrival of the GREIM helicopter, the doctor can only certify his death and they take the body to Boltaña. After hearing the news, close relatives moved to the area where an autopsy will be performed today, Thursday, before being transferred back to Potes (Cantabria). “The spittoon” is named after him because it is usually snowy and its angle of inclination takes you (spit) to a vertical drop of more than one hundred meters. This is one of the most dangerous steps in the ascent to Monte Perdido, where the weather is decisive when planning the equipment and whether or not it is advisable to cross it at a specific time. Monte Perdido is located in the Ordesa Natural Park with 3,555 meters of altitude. There are numerous mountaineers who come to enjoy this mountain, which has already suffered more than fifty deaths in recent decades. Ricardo comes from a very loved and well-known family in Potes. Also because of his work and empathy, he was a young man who everyone appreciated. A big hug to his entire family and his colleagues. https:// esquelas.eldiariomontanes.es/esquelas/cantabria/potes.html?ref=https%3A%2F%2Fesquelas.eldiariomontanes.es%2Fesquelas%2Fcantabria%2Fpotes.html https://www.canoeaventuratrophy.com/fallece-montanero-potes-cantabria-escupidera -lost-mountain/
