Wall Street trader Ekaterina "Kate" Matrosova died while hiking alone in New
Hampshire's White Mountains in subzero temperatures this weekend, the New
York Daily News reported. She was 32.
On Sunday, Matrosova's husband dropped her off at the base of Mount Madison
at about 5 a.m., officials told the local news station WMUR. She planned to
hike to the summit of the 5,367-foot-tall mountain and continue to other
mountains in the Presidential Range.
By 3:30 p.m. ET, Matrosova activated her personal locator beacon, according
to WMUR. The coordinates from her locator device were off in some cases by a
mile, a New Hampshire Fish and Game official told WMUR.
The subzero temperatures and winds over 100 mph on the mountain reportedly
made it impossible for the rescue team to get to her. Rescuers found her
body on Monday afternoon.
Matrosova was an associate in credit trading at BNP Paribas.
"We are deeply saddened by the death of our employee, Kate Matrosova. Our
thoughts are with her family," BNP Paribas said in a statement.
Matrosova previously did stints at Beach Capital Management, JPMorgan, and
Morningstar, according to FINRA records.
She earned a master's degree in financial engineering from UC Berkeley. She
graduated magna cum laude from DePaul University. She was also a CFA
charterholder.
Here's a video of the rescue team. You can see how brutal the conditions
were on the mountain.
