He died from falling into a crevasse while descending the South Buttress of Denali on May 21, 1992 while guiding clients Bob Hoffman and Nelson Max. He is most noted for the first ascent of the ''Emperor Face'' on Mount Robson with Jim Logan, and for three routes in the Alaska Range, the ''East Face'' of The Moose's Tooth, the ''Moonflower Buttress'' on Mount Hunter, and a one-day solo of Denali's ''Cassin Ridge''. Stump along with his geologist brother contributed to field safety for the United States Antarctic Program scientists and other working on the continent for the National Science Foundation. The Mugs Stump Alpine Climbing Award for aspiring alpine climbers is named in his honor. == Early life == Mugs was born in Mifflintown, Pennsylvania, where he grew up fishing, hunting, and camping with his father Warren and three brothers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mugs Stump」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
