New Hampshire Hiker Dies After Fall on Colorado’s Pikes Peak

Tragic Hiking Accident Claims Life of New Hampshire Man in Colorado

MANCHESTER, N.H. — A New Hampshire man has tragically died after a fall during a hike in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. Russell "Rusty" Hardy, a passionate hiker from Rochester, had set out on June 10 to conquer the 14,000-foot Pikes Peak, a long-held dream, according to his family.

Hardy was reportedly caught in a severe thunderstorm while making his descent, leading to a slip on a snowy ledge that resulted in a fatal fall. When he failed to return or check in as scheduled, his family alerted law enforcement, which initiated a search operation. Unfortunately, Hardy’s body was recovered on Monday.

His family, who expressed immense pride in his adventurous spirit, described him as a man who relentlessly pursued his dreams. "He was somebody who followed his dream, no matter what," said his nephew, Michael Gamble. His sister, Debra Hardy, echoed these sentiments, highlighting his love for adventure.

To assist with the expenses of repatriating Hardy’s remains and funeral costs, the family has launched a GoFundMe campaign. Several family members have traveled to Colorado to support the efforts in bringing him home.

Russell Hardy’s passing serves as a somber reminder of the inherent risks associated with outdoor adventures, while his adventurous spirit will be remembered by all who knew him.
