Mountain climbing is dangerous

New York Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney's Husband Died on Mountain Climbing Expedition

Clifton Maloney, a millionaire investment banker and avid climber, was resting in a high-altitude camp after a successful ascent to the summit of the world's sixth-highest mountain when he died.

 

He was 71, a late age for such a grueling endeavor, but had been in excellent health, aides said.
