2010 deaths/injuries/lost hikers in NH

This is the total that I came up with. Could be off a bit. You can keep up to date and read details if you scroll down and look to the right column marked "lost and injured hikers". Be safe out there and always hikesafe!

Died: 6
2 - fell to there death from a ledge/cliff
4 - heart attack or other medical condition

Rescued: 57
49 - stranded or lost (there was a group of 29 which makes up for most of this)
3 - leg/knee injury
2 - medical condition
3 - Fell from a ledge/cliff
