Only part that may not be factual is the mention of a hang fatality at Maryhill State Park. We're trying to figure out the facts. Right now the odds are it was a mini-wing para pilot who may not have launched from inside the park. Sad deal anyway but the hang/para confusion leads to all sorts of problems. One likely being why we're having to change the WAC causing our main Steptoe issue (Washington Administrative Code).
I'm beginning to write a fun story on 'To Hang Or To Para?' targeted to those who don't know one from the other. I'll submit it to local news outfits and see what happens.
