Utah hiker killed by lightning just steps from mountain summit during trek with brother

A Utah man hiking with his brother was killed last week after a lightning bolt struck him just steps from the summit of the highest peak in Salt Lake County, authorities said. Craig Nelson, 59, set out Saturday morning with his brother for the summit of the east peak of American Fork Twin Peaks after the pair rode the Snowbird tram partway up the mountain. The brothers had made the hike together several times before, Salt Lake County Sheriff Rosie Rivera said during a news conference on Monday.
