A Crack News Reporter
Really folks, is it that freakin' hard to get the details right? Four lousy sentences, but what does the gibberish that passes as the 3rd sentence mean? "Rack and pinion"??!!??
WTF???!!?

Bodies of Rock Climbers Found

IDYLWILD ­ The bodies of two Southland rock climbers who plunged to their deaths have now been recovered.

The tragedy occurred Sunday at Taquitz Rock, near Idylwild in Riverside County, a popular rock climbing site.

Authorities say a rack and pinion climbers use to scale rocky terrain snapped and the two men fell 6-hundred feet to the bottom of a ravine.

The victims, 32 year old Kelly Tugo of Anza and 41 year old David Kellogg of San Diego, were experienced climbers.
