A 56-year-old Texas man has been rescued from Colorado's Maroon Peak after he fell 100 feet into a gully.
The Pitkin County Sheriff's Office identified the man as Keith Brewer, of Austin. Brewer's condition was not immediately released, but one sheriff's official said he had broken ribs.
A passerby had reported that the man was injured severely enough that he couldn't climb out of the gully unassisted.
Brewer was evacuated by helicopter off the mountain at 3:28 p.m. and taken to Aspen Valley Hospital.
