US EditionNJ hiker freezes to death climbing New York's tallest mountain with dog
Brianna Mohr, 21, died after slipping near Mount Marcy summit; rescuers found her six hours later amid extreme cold between -8°F and 20°F, police said.
- Authorities located a hiker near the summit of Mount Marcy on February 12, 2026, and confirmed she had died of hypothermia.
- Calling 911 for help, the hiker said she could not get back to the trail near Mount Marcy summit; rescue efforts arrived hours later, and she had died of hypothermia.
- Forest Rangers and rescue teams searched the 5,300-foot peak on snowmobiles, and police tried a helicopter search but cloud cover blocked visibility as temperatures ranged from-22C to-6C earlier this month.
- An autopsy found hypothermia to be the cause of death, Mohr's dog was rescued unharmed, and family and friends are mourning while officials highlight winter hazards.
- Officials and the National Weather Service advise dressing in layers and covering exposed skin, as a colder air mass expected early next week increases frostbite and hypothermia risks.
