Death on Mount Ord

I saw where a couple of teenagers were killed on Mount Ord, and it is apparently a homicide.

I could speculate on what might have happened, but out of respect for the deceased I won't.

I did have to laugh at how the news story described how treacherous the road up to Mount Ord is. The reality is that a sedan could drive up there in dry conditions.

From the news reports, I've been unable to determine where "near Mount Ord" actually is. The video in the link posted actually says the victims were found WEST of SR 87. Almost all of FR 626 is in Gila County. Since MCSO is the agency in charge, I think it's reasonable to guess that the site may be in Maricopa County. It will be interesting to learn more when further details are released.
