Near-miss for top NZ mountain biker
Posted at 3:06pm on 30 Jan 2007

Top New Zealand mountain biker Vanessa Quin escaped being paralysed
after breaking her neck in a fall during the national championships in
Nelson at the weekend.

Wow! Hiking and Mountain biking are so similar! Thanks MV!

Hiker apparently killed by fall on Big Island identified
Advertiser Staff

Big Island police today identified the man who apparently fell to his
death last Thursday as L**** H******, 59, of Westminster, Calif.
H***** had been hiking with a companion when the two of them got lost
after dark in 'Opihikao in Lower Puna.

The 46-year-old woman told police that she heard a splash and Holland
stopped responding to her calls.

Police recovered the body Friday morning at the bottom of a 100-foot
cliff.


Was that a splash she heard or a splat?
