A 34 year old man from Vitoria/Gasteiz in the Spanish Basque Country died last Saturday after falling 50m from the Mt Beriain top SOTA EA2/NV-015.
The newspaper said there have been 7 deaths so far recorded in this mountain.
I just want to highlight this here for the general knowledge of the SOTA community in order to take all necessary caution when up in the summits.
This mountain can be seen far in the distance in this following picture I took from the SOTA I activated yesterday (Mt. Elomendi EA2/NV-037).
This is another closer and more impressive view of this serious mountain:
This one of the ermitage at its summit, was taken from the air and shows perfectly how fatal falling off can be in this mountain:
Please, keep enjoying SOTA but always with care and in safety.
