Camper, 40, blown 100ft to his death off the slopes of Grand Teton during heavy storms

A 40-year-old hiker has died after plummeting 100ft down a rocky cliff as he tried to find a place to camp in a Wyoming mountain range during a storm. Edward Tom, from Colorado, and his friend had been caught in a torrential downpour of rain and hail as they scaled a rocky path in Grand Teton National Park. The pair had been looking for a campsite near the 'Petzoldt Caves' area in Garnet Canyon in the Tetons, according to the National Parks Traveler.
