American Student Found Dead in Cape Town
A 20-year-old American Student from North Carolina was found dead in Cape Town, South Africa after she went on a solo hike to Table Mountain and was in communication with friends via a tracking app on Saturday until the app stopped tracking her whereabouts as her friends could not get a hold of her.
South African authorities have urged people to avoid hiking on their own, suggesting it be done in groups of at least four people. Read more here
We send our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Brook Cheuvront. Special thanks to the SAR teams in South Africa for their dedicated work. This a reminder, and probably a wake-up call for those who plan to go on a solo hike, please make sure to pack an emergency bag, and if you don't feel comfortable hiking alone, plan out a group hike with your friends or family. Please be safe out there everyone!
