  • Awesome. Makes me miss my SAR days, though we never had any rescues quite that heroic.

    Well executed by consummate pros for sure.

  • Indeed! The blood stained granite just below his climbing partner in the first pic….bad stuff, but very fortunate. Report is, he’s recovering.

    Edit: Another report said that he was wearing a helmet, however the head blow occurred just above the right ear.

  • Mountaineer

    Wow – he is very lucky. Appears his run out was a little too long.
