Default Cessna 172R from Telluride to Aspen



Weather at Aspen was low IFR so I had planned to divert to Garfield
County, but I lost control of the aircraft about 20 miles southeast at
12500 feet and impacted terrain.


MSNTSB Report: 'Probable cause of accident: Pilot disorientation caused
by hypoxia due to lack of simulated oxygen'
