Coming down the mountain about 3pm traffic was stopped just above windy point for a helicopter evacuation, rumor was a climber fell 40 feet and had a leg injury. I am hoping the climber is ok.
I was on top of Hitchcock Pinnacle when it happened. He was climbing on the 5.10 side when he fell and his cams came out of the rock. He broke 2 vertebrae in his back and had a compound fracture in his leg. We texted the girl he was with afterwards and she said he is in a full body cast, but he will recover.
