terribly sad, i'm at a loss. Judging from andrew bisharat's twitter, it does seem to be true.

definitely puts a new perspective on some of hayden's writings:

Very sad news. Such a talented and bold climber.

I love how he deleted his social media presence a few years ago and rejected the concept of self promotion. My condolences to his mom and dad and many friends.

Over the last few years, however, as I’ve watched too many friends go to the mountains only to never return, I’ve realized something painful. It’s not just the memorable summits and crux moves that are fleeting. Friends and climbing partners are fleeting, too. This is the painful reality of our sport, and I’m unsure what to make of it. Climbing is either a beautiful gift or a curse.

Again, horrible news...
I really enjoyed his writing, a talented yet humble individual to be sure.

Truly tragic....after Kyle Dempster’s death Hayden had decided to rachet back from cutting edge alpinism. Life has so many unfathomable twists and turns that can seem unfair....my son died tragically when he was only twenty.

My thoughts go out to Michael and Julie for the loss of their son who was special in so many ways. It will be a dufficult journey and the they will need their community around them.

So sad. Literally just watched his vid of him and Ivo Ninov climbing the Bachar Yerian a couple days ago. Seemed like a vibrant, stoked, sincere dude who loved the mountains and his climbing community.


My deepest condolences to Julie and Michael and the entire tribe who knew him well.

This is horrible. The evening sends article was the first piece of climbing literature that I read in a while. Started and couldn't stop reading, so good. Seemed like a very humble guy with incredible skills in the alpine, on rock and a very good writer. Very very very very sad. My prayers go out to the family and friends.

This is so sad. I did not know him but followed him over the years. I had just watched his recent video late last week and so when my son texted me the news it hit like a punch to the gut. No climb is worth losing a kid to and it has me rethinking some of my own activities. So sorry to the family and everyone that knew him.
