A 34-year-old woman stranded for two nights in frigid temperatures after being severely injured in a fall on California’s Mt. Whitney has died at a hospital.
Cassandra Bravo was on a day hike Nov. 5 when she slipped and fell about 100 feet down a slope, her friend Luisa Moya tells CBS Los Angeles.
Moya says Bravo was rescued after sheltering herself underneath a log.
Bravo was rushed to a hospital where she died hours later.
Bravo was the single mother of a 10-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter.
She worked as a nurse at Loma Linda University Medical Center in San Bernardino County.
