Woman Rescued After Falling Near Albright Peak


(JACKSON, WY)  –   A Las Vegas woman is recovering after falling nearly 50-feet while climbing in Grant Teton National Park last week.  Rescuers say 21-year-old Danielle Mendicino was attempting to summit Albright Peak with a climbing partner and was not properly equipped nor experienced.  Park rangers were in the process of short-haul training when they received the call.  Wednesday’s rescue was the first of the 2012 summer season.
