A body found in the tundra atop Colorado’s Independence Pass in 1970 has been identified as legendary ski racer Gardner Paul Smith, a Beat-era adventurer from California who, before he went missing at age 39, was revered as a free-and-easy companion.“Whatever is right, friend,” he would say.Now the daughter he abandoned, who since childhood has wrestled with “a frustrating mystery,” is appealing for details from the end of his life “chasing winter” worldwide.“Obviously it is good to have closure,” said daughter Jeanne Gaida, a 60-year-old Texas real estate agent, in an interview this week. “I feel sad that he seemed to have had a lonely, tragic ending. …“I’m still sorting it out. I am just sad — sad that he was alone,” said Gaida, who interpreted his “whatever is right, friend” expression as evidence of a kind and tolerant man who accepted others’ thinking.Smith’s exhumed remains sat for years in the Leadville, Colo., office of a former coroner until last month when Colorado Bureau ...Rainfall chart: Bay Area totals so far for the March atmospheric river

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- An atmospheric river arriving in the Bay Area Monday evening is expected to bring significant rainfall, according to the National Weather Service. Scattered showers are possible throughout the day Monday with heavy rain expected to arrive overnight, according to KRON4 Meteorologist John Shrable. Storm prep becomes crucial with more rain on the way Along with what the NWS calls a "moderate to high potential for rain," the atmospheric river is expected to raise the possibility of flooding and possible road closures. Expected rainfall around the North Bay mountains and valleys could be in the range of two or more inches, the NWS said. That's enough to cause rivers, streams and creeks to flood, trigger shallow landslides and cause roadway flooding and closures.Higher elevations like the Santa Cruz Mountains and higher North Bay mountains could get four or more inches of rain, the NWS said. Rain will likely remain heavy into Tuesday morning, complica...Bay Area atmospheric river updates: Storm damage impacts traffic

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Northern Kentucky coach Darrin Horn might be looking forward to his team’s NCAA Tournament appearance even more than his players.The Norse won their fourth Horizon League championship since 2016-17 but will play in March Madness for the first time since 2019. They also won the league title in 2020, but there was no NCAA Tournament that year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.That denied Horn a chance to lead his first NKU squad in the Big Dance, which makes this berth a bit more special. Especially after the Norse let an opportunity slip away in last year’s Horizon Tournament.“We kind of feel like we had one taken from us literally, where you qualify for the tournament and then the tournament just doesn’t happen,” Horn said in a phone interview. “So, to finally punch your ticket and know that there’s going to be games and you’re going to be a part of the process, that’s really exciting.”The No. 16 seed Norse (22-12) will face Midwest top seed Houston on Thu...Latest news
