Hiker's death a loss for outdoor community

Two hikers were lost in deep snow on Blackhead Mountain over the weekend. Virginian Alberto Risenberg was rescued on Sunday, but Poughkeepsie's Seth Lyon died on the mountain.

View From The Top, a Northeast outdoors online community, remembers Lyon in a thread on one of their forums.

If you hiked the AT in southern Dutchess, you may have come across Seth... You definately came across his handy work as he was a dedicated trail maintainer. He was a key memeber of the RPHCabin Trail Club as well.

Peace to Seth...Peace to his family.
