Ty Gagne joins us virtually for another fascinating event about the dangers of winter hiking in the White Mountains! The author of Where You'll Find Me: Risk, Decisions, and the last Climb of Kate Matrosova presents his new book, The Last Traverse; Tragedy and Resilience in the Winter Whites, where he masterfully lays out the events that led up to an epic and legendary rescue attempt in severe and dangerous winter conditions in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. More than a cautionary tale, it is a tribute to all the volunteers and professionals who willingly put themselves in harm's way to save lives. This is a must read for anyone who hikes the Whites. Ty will be joined in conversation by Jessica Hunt (The Exchange, New Hampshire Public Radio).
Ty Gagne is chief executive officer of New Hampshire Public Risk Management Exchange (Primex³), a public entity risk pool serving local governments in New Hampshire. He is a certified Wilderness First Responder and the author of the book The Last Traverse: Tragedy and Resilience in the Winter Whites and Where You’ll Find Me: Risk, Decisions, and the Last Climb of Kate Matrosova. Two of his essays, “Footprints in the Snow Lead to an Emotional Rescue,” and “Weakness in Numbers: How a Hiking Companion can be Dangerous” were published in Appalachia journal.
