An Albuquerque woman was struck by lightning and killed during a hike near Breckenridge, Colorado on Sunday afternoon.

The Summit County coroner’s office identifies the woman as Mary Wiper. Wiper had reportedly just recently moved to Albuquerque and was working with the New Mexico chapter of the Sierra Club.

According to the Summit County Sheriff’s Office, officers were called at about 3:20 Sunday afternoon after wiper was hit by lightning while hiking.

Bystanders had unsuccessfully attempted cardiopulmonary resuscitation on her when paramedics arrived. Paramedics were also unable to revive her.

The incident happened in an area known as Little French Gulch, approximately seven miles from downtown Breckenridge.

Wiper was hiking with a group of approximately five other people when the strike occurred. She was hit directly and several other members of the group were knocked down by the bolt.
