In Memory of Erin O’Keefe

Mountain Rats 1876 a

A somber ceremony at Pike’s Peak 1876. The dangers of the new frontier were many, and there were many horrible ways one could part from the living.

Mountain Rats 1876

The U.S. Signal Service (an early Weather Bureau) built a telegraph station on the summit [of Pike’s Peak] in 1873 to monitor the weather, and a guard was posted in Manitou at the beginning of the trail to collect a toll for hiking to the summit.

In May of 1876, tragedy befell the O’Keefe family when their daughter Erin was apparently eaten by mountain rats. The true story may be found here.

UPDATE: BTW that’s Will Nunziata.

“Even if you’ve never seen Will Nunziata and Jerry Miller do their thing, you feel like you have while watching “Dystopia Gardens” at Dixon Place. Mr. Nunziata is the portly one, crass and fearless even (or is that especially?) when running around in his underwear.” [via]
